Norton Internet Security password problems

I have installed NIS for my childrens pc over the last year.
It has successfully blocked adult sites and ads as well. However, it cannot access Kazaa and other research sites which my children need for school. I have listed in the bypass section these sites but the software is not cooperating. so, I need to disable it. Unfortunately, I have lost the administrator password.

Can you offer suggestions how to solve my problem.

Thanks,
KaseyMoo

KaseyMoo,

I would like to reaffirm nouellette's assertion that Kazaa is not a research site. Your children only need access to Kazaa if you feel it is important they have the ability to download copyrighted material (music, applications, etc), as well as give strangers access to files on your children's PC.

For legitimate research, http://www.encyclopedia.com/ and http://www.google.com/ are more appropriate.

Cheers,

you will need to allow the kazaa ports through the firewall. i know it uses 1214 but i dont know if thats the only one...
try enabling port 1214
