Try to make an administer account, if possible. Then you can uninstall it. If not, you could always reinstall the OS, or make a bootable CD that allows you to make an administrator account.
2 :
I wouldn't suggest that you try to get around any parental controls or blocks that have been installed on your computer, as they were probably put there for a reason and you may end up getting into trouble for trying to do so. Instead, perhaps you should try talking to your grandmother about her removing them. Sorry...
3 :
you need the password to get off the parental control.

You don't....They were put there for a reason, and if you gain your grandmother's trust and do what you are suppose to do then she will loosen the reigns. The other contributor was correct that the only way to do that is to either hav the administrator password, or to reinstall the OS and I know for a fact that you do not have the backups to do that and you will never figure out the password for the administrator (She's to good at making the most convoluted passwords) Just do what you have to do and like the other contributor said talk to her and see if she'll loosen up the reigns. Do what you have to do and it makes the asking much easier! Also never air your feelings on an open forum like this, you never know who will see it! (Just a friendly suggestion)

Should I take my Laptop to a 30-day European trip to pay my bills and download my camera pictures
Should I take my Laptop to a 30-day European trip to pay my bills and download my camera pictures?
On my trip in October to Germany I want to be able to pay my bills. The travel agent says it would be better to log-in at a cyber cafe instead. I am only taking a back-pack and I would have to carry my computer everywhere. I have also been told by a friend that I should take a removable external hard drive (SanDisk cruzer mini) with enough storage capacity for my pictures. For evenings out I might have to leave the computer in my hotel room, whereas during the day I would take it with me. What do you think?

Good idea in a perfect world without crime. Watch out for crime!! But, it has all of your information on it, so if it's stole, so it your identity and information. I say no.
2 :
That's kind of tough, but I would bring it, it would make paying bills a lot easier, and if you didn't put your pictures on it, you would definitely run out of memory, unless you brought a ton of memory cards. On a 30 day European tour, I think you're going to take a lot of pictures, and I don't think you need to worry about it being stolen in the hotel room, just don't leave out in the open. It depends how much memory is on your laptop, but an external hard drive is probably a good idea

I'm going to be travelling alone to Italy, and Germany. How fun is it
I'm going to be travelling alone to Italy, and Germany. How fun is it?
Hi, I'm thinking of travelling to Germany and Italy in the next 2 weeks. I'm going to Frankfurt, and then going to Venice for 4 days, and than to Rome for 6 days. I know those cities have lots of history and architecture, but for a 23 year old male, should I stay in hostels there ot hotels? I do enjoy company, but am a little worried about theft, as I'm planning on bringing my laptop, and some other electronics. Could you please advise me on where to stay to be safe, and also how fun will the whole experience be. Thanks

Why don't you go with a charter group. It's a lot safer and you will have company to enjoy all you experiences with. I wouldn't want to travel by myself. It's not safe. Have a good time.

I stayed in Pensione Ottaviano hostel in Rome which is good n cheap, and good location - walking distance to Vatican City and near metro station to other attractions. Places that you go, I think are rather safe. --http://travellerfolio.com

If you can afford it, I would stay in hotels. I have travelled many times alone in Europe, and have enjoyed hostels, but I far prefer hotels when i could afford it. They tend to be in nicer areas, closer to the main attractions, and lets face it, its better living and always nice not to have to wait for a shower. In Frankfurt, be careful, it almost seems as if it is one big red light district. There are some nice museums, decent shopping and concerts, but it seems to be on the seedy side. If you can, visit Wiesbaden or Mainz, very close to Frankfurt and have great histories and are beautiful, or perhaps Cologne by train, great shopping and beautiful city. As for Venice, it is expensive no matter how you travel there, but well worth it. Don't miss San Marco, basilica di san marco, the damn pigeons, gondola rides, the bridge of sighs, carnival masks and the glass blowing. Beautiful place, even when it is cloudy. Rome is also beautiful, yet very much a regular city with regular problems. There are plenty of hostels and cheap hotels, don't be afraid to get hotels outside the city as the transportation is quick and easy. My suggestion is to start at vatican city very early in the morning, beat the lines. You will spend almost a whole day touring this area, yet well worth it. Don't forget the Colisseum, Tomb of the unknown soldier, the forum and spanish steps. Its good that you will spend some time there, as there is much to see. Im jealous, you will have alot of fun, just be open to walking everywhere, i think it helps you get a good feel for the cities. Also, be friendly, most speak english, but don't be rude about it and the germans and italians are more than willing to help out. Have fun

is there any big German shops where they sell PCs
is there any big German shops where they sell PCs?
What shops are there in Germany like PC world, Dixons etc (big leading companies)? Also, how much does it cost to make a printer and where made? This is for a school project where we have to export goods to Germany and we have to find out all of the financial and business stuff. We are making a laptop printer. So to sum up: where is an electrical store in Germany? How much does it cost to make an average printer? Where? (e.g China) Thanks in advance.

The biggest electronics retailers in Germany are Saturn, Conrad and Mediamarkt. Conrad electronics specializes more in PCs. Many of the department stores like Quelle or Karstadt, Otto or Neckermann will take on a new line of printers if the price is right. They will expect local representation, service channels and quality guarantees. How will you handle warranty service and supplies? Who makes your consumables and where do customers get them. Lots of stuff to consider
