Ugh when I cant go outside unless I bring my rain jacket even though its really sunny!

Reminds me of this one time my parents were watching an R rated movie, and my niece(Yes, I'm an uncle at 10) and I weren't nearly old enough. So then they said we couldn't watch it. But then my neice said "Well I've watched it before..." and they let HER watch it. Oh, and, did I mention that she's TWO YEARS YOUNGER THAN ME!? Parents, I tell ya.

Discuss annoying over-protectiveness here.

"You'll be abducted!" Need I say more?

There is a parental controls program called Net Nanny on my computer. If I go anywhere on the net it thinks is inappropriate (and there are alot of false positives), i get blocked.

I am 12, I should be able to be on the net without being blocked from anything!

-.-

I hate those.

Go to Task Manager, processes, and delete NNSCV.exe and NNTray.exe. Voila.

That doesn't work, and I have ways around it (VMs in VirtualBox). Besides, I know the admin password (found it out last night *evil* ) My parents are probably going to catch me while doing one of those things, and I will be stuck blocked again. D:

Are proxies blocked?

Ah-HA!

Go to this. If blocked, I'll copypaste the page here.

First, you need to boot to safe mode.

To do this, press F8 when your computer boots.

After you get into safe mode, follow the steps below:

Open My Computer
Click on Tools at the top
Click on Folder options
Open the View tab
Select the circle next to Show Hidden Files and Folders
Click Apply and then OK

Delete the ContentWatch Folders from the following locations:

c:\program files
c:\documents and settings\all users\application data

Also, try the methods below if that doesn't work:

First things first, there is reportedly an "in-case-Mommy-forgot-the-password" backdoor to the program (some or all versions). Try ~frontdoor as your password.

Net Nanny Version 4.0: In Windows 98 or Windows ME, click Start > Run, and type msconfig in the box to start a Windows configuration tool. Go to the Startup tab, which displays a list of programs that run at startup. Uncheck the entries for "nntray.exe"and "NNSvsc", then restart. Net Nanny disabled!

Method 1:
To disable Net Nanny for a single session in Windows 95, press CTRL-ALT-DELETE to bring up the Close Program dialogue. Depending on the version of Net Nanny you are afflicted with, either OCRAWARE or Wnldr32 will appear on the list. Select whichever is listed and press End Task.

To disable it more permanently, try some of these methods of getting rid of it for good:

Method 2:
Open the file c:\windows\system.ini. Under the section marked "[boot]", there should be a line labeled "drivers=" with some stuff listed after it. Remove the word "wndrv16.dll" from the "drivers=" line. (If there are other words listed on the "drivers=" line, leave them there, just remove "wndrv16.dll".) Save changes to the file and restart your computer, and Net Nanny is gone for good!

Method 3: (note: this may only apply to the win3.x version):
Open the file config.sys (it should be in your c:\ directory) and look for the line DEVICE=C:\NN\NNDRV.SYS. This is the net nanny driver. To prevent it from loading type REM in front of this line, so it appears as REM DEVICE=C:\NN\NNDRV.SYS. (REM stands for Remark; it tells the computer not to process that line because it is a user-inserted remark or comment.) Reboot to eliminate the copy of NN resident in memory, and you'll be censor-free! Net Nanny will no longer load when you restart your system.

To clear Net Nanny's log file:
Delete the file Wnn3.log (it should be in your Net Nanny directory). Note that you can't open the file an

Unfortunately, yes.

That's why I'm H4X0Ring it.
