Is there anyway to disable the supervisor password in the content advisor in the internet options of IE5?

If I understand your question correctly. Open your IE 5 browser go to tools then options and content and under content advisor click 'disable' and enter the password you put in there before and close out your browser and then open it up again and you will not be asked for a password again. Hopefully this will answer your question correctly.

This has worked for me in the past.

If you've forgotten the Internet Explorer content advisor password and want to change the ratings settings then follow these instructions to change the settings back to their defaults.

All the Content Advisor settings are stored in the key below. If you no longer have the password, then simply delete the key, and all the settings will be removed.

Open you registry, find the key below. Single click on the key to highlight it, press the DELETE key, or alternatively select Delete from the Edit menu.

Close Internet Explorer, re-open it, and the Content Advisor feature should be disabled.

Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Ratings]

Make sure to backup your registry first.

This sounds to me like disabling it with your password. Right-click on the Internet Explorer icon on the desktop and click on properties, go to Content menu, and click on disable. Type in your current password, and it is disabled. If you do not havethe Internet Explorer icon on the desktop, run iexplore and go to Tools menu and Internet Options. Hope this works, Maozy.
