Ramesh,
Thanks, I ran the program to re-initialize the settings.
Method 2: I found a way dissect and reset the Content List using Regedit.
Start/Run/Regedit. Search on the first item in the Content List, for
example
http://www.example.com. It will be unique within the Registry and
the search will bring you to the Content List with sequence 0,1,2..etc. in
the left pane. Get your barrings by browsing the list. Delete the entire
folder, ie 0, and close regedit. Go to Content Settings and you'll find
the entire content list gone.
This worked for me by removing the blank item that wouldn't go away. I ran
a Registry Optimizer after to clean up loose ends.
Later, Power Mack

Hi Power Mack,
Try this solution, courtesy of MVP Jim Byrd.
If you wish to restore Content Advisor to its original condition (because
of
your kids) you can obtain a Microsoft program (CA-Reset.exe - 89.5K) to
do
this here:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/CA-Reset.exe
(listed on line 283) NOTE: Using CA-Reset will completely delete your
Approved List - everything starts like brand new, so consider this before
you use it.
Follow-up with a malware cleanup. Complete information is here:

Content Advisor blocks all web browsing.
I can not remove an item on Approved Sites.
The item is a blank (14 spaces) with the Never checked.
Action: Delete
Apply, OK
I go back in and the item is still there, like a virus.
Thanks
