Hey all, I think this is where this should go, you can move it if I'm wrong.
So I'm still in school, home schooling over the internet. I sent my computer in for a refurb over the summer & when I got it back, they put this stupid blocky thing on it. For example, this is what comes up if i try to check my e-mail: http://208.40.167.8:81/cgi/block.cgi...L&USER=Student I was wondering if anybody has any idea how to take that off. Going to the control pannel doesn't work, it says I need the administrator to do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Try logging in as admin by pressing F8 when the comp is booting and see if you can change when you login as admin from there

I'm not sure if that worked. What selection should I have chose? They had a big list of stuff & I just clicked on "Start Windows Normally".
Sorry, I'm completely retarded when it comes to high tech computer stuff! |

OK I see what the problem is.
I figured out how to log in as admin (I have Windows XP Home Edition-blech!) but the problem is I don't know what the freaking password is, of course. So I guess what means I'm pretty much screwed, huh? |

Yep, it may just be nothing or something as simple as admin

Yeah, I've tried about everything I can think of & still can't get in so I guess I gotta deal with this stupid thing for the rest of the year. Grr.
Thanks so much for your help though! |
