Crack the content advisor password

[aubn8r32]

I am trying to setup some Internet restrictions on my PC. I recently started getting a lot of pornographic pop-ups that is very intrusive while trying to work and I think it's because either my son or his cousin have been viewing things they shouldn't be when I am not around. Now I went to the IE settings in control panel, and under the content tab, there appears to be a section under content advisor where I can change the settings on this PC. However, when I click on the settings button, it is asking me for a password and I never setup a password for that, and the hint that it gives me makes no sense to me. Is there away to either crack that password, or is there another way that I can set the Internet so that certain adult sites can not be viewed under my son's profile?

Well I found a way to crack the password and I changed the settings so that the content allowed is at its lowest, but when I went to an adult site, it let me right in. It didn't block anything? Is there other programs that will block that sort of stuff?

Look into Net Nanny or something similar. They aren't free though. My McAfee Internet Security Suite has parental controls and I can customize it in many ways to do that.
Edit: Also, make sure they aren't in the Administrators group in windows.

Thanks! I will look into that. Does it offer a way for them to not to be able to dl things off the net too?

Netnanny works great. I changed his user account so he no longer has admin rights. He can no longer install anything now. The only thing left is to try and cleanup all these dang popups that I am still getting
