I have forgotten my pass word to log on to the internet on my laptop. Everything is set up but I keep getting the content advisor screen up asking for a password and I have tried everthing I can think of. Is there a way around this

Launch RegEdit.
Navigate to the following location:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Ratings]
Delete the REG_BINARY Value Key.
Close Regedit.
Launch Internet Explorer.
Select Tools > Internet Options... from the menu bar.
Click the Content tab.
Click the Disable... button.
When prompted for a password, Click the OK button.
The Content Advisor is now disabled.
You can enable it again as soon as you decide on a new password.0 -
Why don't you have a look at your router the password is probably printed on it.
Alternatively log into your router and navigate to the relavent page where the wireless password is.That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
