I've been playing around with selenium and trying to run Internet Explorer 11, but I'm getting the error below.

I've tried it running the Firefox and it works fine. I've also tried modifying the security features of IE but still i get the same error.
Below is the code snippet where the error occurs. The error occurs upon the initialization of InternetExplorerDriver()
System.setProperty(KEY_IE_DRIVE, FILE_PATH_DRIVER_IE_X32_EXE);
DesiredCapabilities cap = new DesiredCapabilities();
cap.setCapability(InternetExplorerDriver.IE_ENSURE_CLEAN_SESSION, true);
driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(cap);
driver.manage().window().maximize();
See if the following helps:
