password for parental control! How to reset if forgotten.

I forgot the parental control password. How can I reset?

Microsoft can not tell you how to bypass the password. Please see their policy here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/189126

If you have an another administrator account on the system, you may be able to reset the parental control using this account - but I'm not sure, you can reset the parental control password (or if the other account administrator will be able to access the parental controls without a separate password if one has been created for this feature).  You'll have to maybe just disable parental control entirely if you want that the issue that you are experiencing to go further (but which will disable all other controls as well).

Here is a good tutorial on how to use the Parental control - but he doesn't answer your question precisely http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial139.html.

Sorry we can not help you more, but the rules to help move beyond passwords does not allow me to provide and guide or links to something that might help.

Good luck!
