Disable Content Advisor on 150+ Windows 2000 PC's
I need to disable Content Advisor on 150+ Windows 2000 PC's. Each PC has the same Administrator password. I don't want to go into each machine and disable it manually in IE. I also don't want to go into each machine and edit the registry to remove the "Key" for the password. I tried exporting that key to other machines hoping it would disable on the other machines, but it did not.

150 pc's in a workgroup!! I'd like to know how you do that. Afraid i can't help you with this one.
What version of IE are you using?
You could try using the IEAK Profile Manager (Microsoft Tool) to create a automatic configuration file.
Unfortunately depending on your existing configuration you might have to re-install a customised IE but it will be worth it in the long run!

Unfortunatley, these PC's are setup in a workgroup instead of with Active Directory. They all are identical except for the computer name. How can I setup this group policy and distribute it to the other PC's?
