I know where it is, how to set the password, but is there any way to disabble
the password box after I set it? Its incase some one decideds to hack into it
I just want to disable the box to set the password on or off.

The password for Content Advisor can be very easily circumvented. ANY
software you install on the same host that the user is allowed physical
access can be circumvented by the user, like booting from a CD-ROM disc.
You need to put the content filtering software upstream of the
physically accessed host.

Note, the article states that you will not be charged if it is just a
password reset.

Content Advisor under "C" for info and specialized .vbs scripts to turn it
on and off and to modify specific settings.
