the password is stored in the registry at

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Ratings

there is a binary vaule there called KEY which is the password encrypted, just delete it to remove the password, close internet explorer before you do it

this is ie5.5 on windows 2000, but its probably the same for xp, if not just do a search for ratings and you should find the key somewhere else

the winxp reg layout is different i can find no reference to key anywhere in hklm section or anywhere else ,,ill try using google on this problem. thanks anyway.

Its not different, i checked it on xp,

open regedit, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

then all the rest -> Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Ratings

its there,
