Annoying "Restricted Sites" behavior, IE 7 Marlon Brown 02-20-2007

From a certainServer, I attempt to go to www.microsoft.com/security. I get
there just fine, but when I click on "Windows Update" I notice a
'prohibited' signal on the top of the IE 7 page. From there I can't access
Windows Update.

What it is strange is that under "Security" settings I added the complete
http://update.microsoft.com/windowsupdate/v6/default.aspx
and also http://.update.microsoft.com*

However the problem persists.

What am I missing? How can I browse to the security update sites without
restrictions?
