Content advisor

[Jane Brown]

I have lost my password to access the content advisor
that is used to block websites. My husband set it without
a password hint and we cannot open it. Is there some way
to reset it ?. There are a few sites I wish to prohibit
our kids from viewing. Help !

Jane,

Here's your solution.



* Start > Run > type REGEDIT > OK



* go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Rating



* hi-lite the Ratings folder and on the right pane there should be a 'KEY'
along with 2 others 'File' & 'Default', right-click & delete only 'KEY'



* Close Regedit > Restart Computer



* Open IE's Internet Options > Content > click Disable



* when asked for a password, leave blank > OK



Good Luck,

Drew
