Parental control blocks Family Feud 2

I'm at my wits end... I have vista, a user (Administrator) account, parental, controls are not on that I know and I have no other software with parental controls on my computer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling family rivalry 2 and get a popup that says high 'access denied', then in the window it says "Parental control have prevented this program from running."  Also, I have disabled account control, but tried with it on and outside and get the same message. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

THEY ARE NOT ENABLED. "" Parental controls cannot be applied to your own account because it's an admin"".

It is more likely that Family Feud has not been installed correctly, or is not compatible with Vista. It may be easier to make games BACK right now works with Vista, while Win32 games can present problems because of registry problem.

If/when you have installed Family Feud, you precisely it install as an administrator? Have you installed it because your account is Administrator equivalent! This is not quite the same thing. If you ran it from setup.exe, you must always install using the right click "run as Administrator"

The other thing to make sure installation is correct is to right click on the shortcut or Menu item and select "Run as Administrator"

Then, still give it a shot by right click on it & "Run as Administrator".

Hope it would help. Anurag Shukla

    Well, before you start, please don't tie me to the same danged tutorial. I have NEED OF KNOWLEDGE HOW CONFIGURE THE PARENTAL CONTROLS. I NEED TO KNOW HOW to STOP BLOCK ACROSS the WEB . You see, here's the deal: the setting on my user account is block only pornography, adult content, bomb, Cook, drugs, etc.. The box marked "unrateable content" is not checked. And yet, it does not block all the web only on this basis: I'll have to use the administrator account to access the same this! And so I thought, let's restart it in safe mode, because the computer doesn't even have the parental controls in safe mode. But here, even in safe mode, the entire web is blocked on the unrateable content database.

    Yet once, please don't tie me to this danged tutorial bleepingcomputer you people seem to thing is a panacea for everything here. And please excuse me if I look a little snippy. I am right now (I hope it's understandable) a little frustrated.

  • Issues related to the parental control EA6900

    I have my setup of parental control to block access from 22:00 to 09:00 however, it does not automatically access when the time changes to time 'unlocked '. Curiously, it still shows the message 'parental control block. I have to disable the parental control to allow access to devices after 9:00 and then it must reactivate at 22:00 to block access again.

    I've also updated the latest firmware (1.1.42.161129). It does not seem to be 2 versions (V1.0 or V1.1), however, these two seem to be the same file. I used the correct version for my router (V1.0).

    I want to stay with what you have for now and look to see if it works on some devices. Check that the clock on the router is configured correctly. See also if certain sites are blocked and others not. I think there's a bug where some sites using https:// is not to be blocked but http:// did. It worked correctly before the upgrade? Remember you of what was the old version? The cancellation is made by the interface of the router and there is a button to restore but still, if restore you an unwanted version which isn't good either. Better do small things first.

  • wrong 'Parental controls has blocked this download'

    Hello.  I have my three children under parental controls on our family PC, Youtube.com, I added to the allow list for all three, and it works for both of them, but not for a.  She gets the following error dialog box even though I checked the green list, removed and added the entry, it disconnected and turn it back on, rebooted the PC and connected as a parent and run the application of parental control and updated data.  The really weird thing is when I log in as admin and look at the history, it shows that he was approving access.  But his browser (IE 9) keeps the display of this dialog and blocks access.  And she is my old, and she is not yet on the level of 'child-friendly' is one of them.  Help, please.

He asks that all the personal information you give NEVER online so I knew it was a virus. I write this in safe mode. My Vipre will not pick up this virus and Malware bites either.

    You can attach a screenshot?

    Use a type of compressed as PNG or JPG image to save the screenshot.

    Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.

    You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.
