undo a v-chip without the password?

My daughter fell asleep on her remote control and put a v-chip block on her t.v. she has no clue what the password could be because she could have pressed any number of buttons. I have tried every which way and can not undo it. Please help.
Her t.v. is an Orion 13 inch. I'm not sure how old, I think about three years old.

I found this on another web site. I haven't tried it myself, but I hope it works!:
"This will probably work for most Orion V-chips... I figured it out looking at another manufacturer's instructions, on my Orion it was:
* Turn the volume down to 0
* Change to a blocked channel (where it asks for V-Chip password)
* On the TV (not from the remote) hold the volume down button
* (While holding volume on TV) hold the '0' key on the remote for between 2-10 seconds...
* The screen should unlock, and you should save no V-Chip restrictions.
You can now use your manual to find out how to set the restrictions you want."
