Okay so my mom is threatning to install one of those faggy parental things so it limits me to 4 hours a day.
Now 2 things, she can't download it if she can't get on so I put a password on my admin profile and took out the guest profile. Now she is forcing me to put it back on.
Now I have 2 question, one is there a way to make my guest so she can't download anything on the on that profile or 2, is there anyway I can take the parental thing off if she does put it on? |

Depends what she picks, Parental settings is a Vista default. So if you have Vista, you already have parental settings. =D

I mean, if you're on a admin account Trev, and your mum puts your admin account on parental controls then she's pretty dumb (No offence) because you can easily uninstall it.

If she has installed the parental controls as the administrator, it will govern the guest accounts. If she's set the guest accounts up properly, they will be unable to install or uninstall software, which obviously includes the parental controls.
If you're forced to use the computer as a guest account, you're pretty much screwed. What I would do while you still have access to the administrator account is create an additional account with administrative privileges, and just use that. It will still appear on the login screen, though.

or he could use the windows command box to acess the admin account using netuser command and then access it by gaining the password and looging on and uninstalling it then log off and she is none the wiser
my mum did thisto me (To be honest i did it or my mum was taking my laptop) she blocked my router so i can only get on the internet when she was in but i did this on my laptop got the password for the router and disabled it and she doesnt know aslong as im careful and not on before my time when shes in the house all is good

In XP it is incredibly easy to access/make/change an admin account. Right-click on My Computer >> Manage >> Users and Groups. From there you can edit groups, accounts, etc. In Vista and above the functionality was removed as it was a huge security hole. | |
