content advisor

Hello, I booted my computer today, started IE, but it prompts me for a password for every web site because somehow the damn content advisor in tools->internet options got enabled, to disable it I need a password, is there a default pass, because i did NOT enable this myself. Is there another work around in the registry or something?
I can still use the Internet with mozilla firebird, but I wanna fix this cause I hate this unknown problems. BTW I'm running win xp pro and haven't done or downloaded any strange progs, I have a fully updated AV, and I am pretty sure I am free of spyware, (ran Adaware & spybot SD)


thnx

This is all you should need.

Just delete the "password". :)

Only time I had this problem was on a friend's computer running ME. . .this worked though. . .

Removing the password
1 Go to start, run, type "regedit" and press "OK".
2 Expand the folders down the left, in this order.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
>Software
>Microsoft
>Windows
>CurrentVersion
>Policies
>Ratings
3 On the right you will see the word "Key" - Click it once, then press "del" or right click, and select delete.
4 Close the registry editor.
5 Go to start, run, type "explorer" and press "OK".
6 Navigate to C:\Windows\System and delete "ratings.pol"
