Parental Controls Problem
Hello, There are parental controls on my safari internet browser and I need to figure out how to find the password to unlock it. My friend was screwing around and can't remember what he put as the password. I need help ASAP! I have to get to other websites besides the ones that are on my bookmarks!! I am really hoping i dont have to "factory reset" the computer. Please let me know if there is another way. Thanks

The administrator of the computer is the only one who can set and clear parental controls. Your 'friend' could not have set them, and you can't clear them without the assistance of the administrator. Go ask him/her.
