I am not sure exactly how you are doing this but I suspect that a user who
can modify the content advisor settings needs the password for Content
Advisor and/or administrative rights if they are doing this via Local Group
Policy. I don't know of any workaround for such. Depending on the size of
your network you may be better of using an Active Directory domain so that
you can centralize the process for all users or use something like ISA 2004
server or a firewall that can do content management. Sonicwall and others
have firewall devices that can be used with a monthly subscription service
that for a reasonable rate can restrict the types of websites your users
access. ISA 2004 is very powerful but it is not cheap or the easiest to set
up and would require that the ISA 2004 server be the default gateway.
Microsoft however will let you try it free for 120 days. --- Steve
