How to reset my 3gs restrictions code?

My locations service is grayed out on my iphone 3gs and in the off position.
I've been to restrictions in the settings>general and it wants a code which i can't remember.
I can't use the back up facility as i recently had to format my my HDD (virus)

Any thoughts / solution would be greatly appreciated.

Hold the lock button and the the home button together for 10 seconds. This will reset your iPhone completely
