IE Enhanced Security and about:* pages

$

I understand the need for Internet Explorer Enhanced Security and do not care to turn it off on my Windows 2008 servers.    But when applications that use IE for help and reporting open and close IE windows, Internet Explorer 8 and 9 give popups that "about:internet" (and other about:* and res:* locations that come from IE itself) are being blocked by IE Enhanced Security.   It's not possible to add about:* and res:* to Local Intranet through the security zones dialog because they want a real URL with http:// or https:// at the beginning.

IE is blocking an internal notification page it decided to display without anyone asking for it. That's just silly.  Does anyone have a way around this without turning off Enhanced Security?

Yeah, it's just an annoyance. But it's a big annoyance.
