Unfortunately this option (Policy Editors) isn't available to anyone who
bought Home Premium.
It -was- there for XP Home users, not by default mind you, but at least it
was easily enabled via a simple registry edit.

Yea I know, people will argue that it as removed to prevent all us stupid
Home users from hurting ourselves.
Same reason Fax Support was removed from the Home version too I guess?
<sigh>

Just two of the many reasons how upgrading to Vista turns out to be a
downgrade...
