Content Advisor on IE

Somebody at work activited the content advisor on Internet Explorer and we can't use it to use on the internet. We tried to disable it and it asks for a password. No one knows since know one knows who activated it. We can't remove IE and we don't want to format the HDD for this stupid thing. How can we get rid of this annoying thing? Is there a way to get around this? Anything helps. Thanks
