Mac Forum / Applications / Internet Explorer / October 2003IE 5.1.7 "Ratings" password!!
I got a used mac from a friend, the same G3 I already had. I was trying to tweek it and install new programs and such, so I can donate it to a childcare afterschool program near me. Anyway, they had IE installed, so I skipped ahead and installed everything else. Everything works, but there's a password for the Ratings settings, which NEED to be set for the children. I don't know the password, the person who gave me the computer doesn't know it, and I can't seem to get it to reset. I've tried trashing IE, MS files and everything else I can think of. NOTHING has been able to reset to password. Does anyone know how to do this? I've tried the few things suggested, the things I've seen on here, and none of them work. The password has to be stores in a file, somewhere..I just can't find which file it's stored in! Any help would be great! > I got a used mac from a friend, the same G3 I already had.

Hi Beth, I'm still trying to find a definitive answer on this. Running the Microsoft Internet First Run application (if it is still present on the machine) will resolve the issue for Classic OS. The problem with that of course is that the MIFR software was only bundled with the original IE 5 installation, so there's every chance that you don't have it. If you wish, I can put the necessary MIFR installer up on some Webspace for you to download. E-mail me if you're interested (note that the download will be approximately 3Mb in size.) As far as OS X goes, I really have no solution to offer - from my efforts to bypass the Ratings password, I've not been able to find a suitable workaround. Ricky Hrm, I would email you if i had your proper email :) But yes, if you could put up that file for me somewhere, that would be great! And I'm running 9.2.2 so no worries about the OSX :) Thanks! -Beth > Hi Beth, > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Ricky |
