I accidentally removed the default blocked websites that allow cookies in the
Options/Privacy tab/managed websites section. Does anyone know a way to
restore these options. System restore does not do it. I am hoping a file
can be copied to IE7 or windows to restore the sites.

If you have an xml file in the format of..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<MSIEPrivacy>
<MSIEPrivacySettings formatVersion="6">
<p3pCookiePolicy zone="internet">
<firstParty noPolicyDefault="reject" noRuleDefault="reject"
alwaysAllowSession="yes">
</firstParty>
<thirdParty noPolicyDefault="reject" noRuleDefault="reject"
alwaysAllowSession="yes">
</thirdParty>
</p3pCookiePolicy>
<alwaysReplayLegacy/>
</MSIEPrivacySettings>
<MSIESiteRules formatVersion="6">
<site domain="site1.com" action="accept" />
<site domain="site2.com" action="accept" />
</MSIESiteRules>
</MSIEPrivacy>

you can keep your list of allowed sites and override/block all other sites.

I keep one of these available online so I can download it to any IE browser
I'm using.

List gone, is there a way to get it from a hd backup, like a registry file that holds the list, and put it back with regedit ?

Did you have any in the first place?
There are no "default blocked websites that allow cookies" in a plain
installation of IE7.
I have never had sites in any installation of any version of IE.

If you did put some in, then you may be able to get them back from a
hd backup but you will have to supply details of operating system and
what type of backup you did.
