Windows Explorer Password

[Quasited]

I have a small problem with a computer in the office. I and the Systems Analyst put on the Content password for Explorer 4.0. This occured about six months ago, because the person using the computer was browsing the internet more than working (great way of stoping this, huh). That person left, finally, and now we are trying to get the explorer back to working condition, but seem to have forgotten the password.
I am not a child trying to break into daddy's porno sites, so I am legit. So we do not have any adolesent users trying to do the above, please email me directly.
Thank you for your help.

Go to HKEY LOCAL MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/ Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Ratings
there is a key labelled "key" Delete it.This will set the password to blank.
Then go back into Content Advisor and disable it.

The reason I posted it here is because it can be found easily on the web. Not true security for a web savy teenager.

Yeah. I was going to answer your question, but fair64 had already done it. I'm 15. http://www.windrivers.com/cgi-bin/forum/wink.gif I have my own computer and have never had the content adviser set on me, but I could have disabled it if I ever wanted/needed to with very little difficulty.

When I hear someone say they give "110%" to whatever they're doing, it makes me feel good inside, because I know I'm not as big a moron as that person is.
