There are several possibilities.
Rightclick the game file to click Properties. It may have a "Block" setting
on the download.
If not, you can rightclick a shortcut to the game, and 'run as
administrator'

thanks for responding but both ideas did not work, it continues to give me an
error of "parental controls prevent this application from running"

Any other ideas??

Open regedt32 and find the "Ratings" key, and delete the "KEY" Value. Then
turn off content advisor with a blank password in IE, tool, Options, Content
tab, and then restart windows.
