I'm having a problem with a password that was entered into the Content
Advisor Section a few years ago when my eldest son had access the the pc. The
pc was cleaned up and recently turned over to my other son. A request for
the "Supervisory Password" suddenly started appearing on the pc and it won't
allow me to disable it. I have viewed the sites that my son goes to and none
of them would be considered "offensive". I have also made numerous attempts
to disable this constant entering of this password without much success. Is
their anyone who can assist me?

Internet Explorer - Content Adviser - Reset



The following steps will remove any password set in the Content Adivisor
and allow you to reset the program to its original state.

1) Click on Start and choose Run.

2) Type in RegEdit and select OK.

3) Now click on the little plus sign to the left of H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.

4) Continue to drill down, always clicking on the plus sign at the left
of
the named key, through Software, Microsoft, Windows, Current Version and
Policies.

5) Now click on the Ratings folder.

6) In the right pane of the RegEdit window, you'll see an icon called
Key.
Click on it and press Delete.

7) Next, choose Registry and then Exit to exit RegEdit. You've just
deleted
your original Content Advisor password.

8) Restart the computer and run Internet Explorer again.

9) Choose View and then Internet Options.

10) Click on the Content tab and click on Disable. When asked for a
password, don't enter anything; just click on OK. This will disable
Content Advisor because there's no longer a password.
