    Content Advisor Password

    Any ideas where the Content Advisor Password in Internet Explorer is stored?

    I had a user play a joke on another user, she set the Content Advisor with a password and is now she’s out of town for the next week and the restrictions are so tight that the browser is pretty much useless. So far the only info I have is that I should contact Microsoft.

    IDEAS????

    thanks!

    Unfortunately, we don't if the lady thats out of town is "The Boss" or Mom and maybe she turned on the password for a reason.

    I can appreciate the skepticism Steve.

    Actually both are attorneys and my guess is the female may have been "getting back" at the rather cocky male. On one had I find it extremely funny and find myself cheering for the female, on the other hand it’s a real pain in the butt.

    Found the same article on support.microsoft and similar info on TechNet.

    Appreciate the response

    Under c:\windows\system, rename the 'ratings' file to something else. There is also a ratings.pol in c:\windows -mk
