    Argh!!!!

    I swear, how can people manage to do this stuff?! My step brother went on my computer today and now I get on it... MSN messenger is just messed up..

    I can't sign in (might be a server problem), a bunch of the settings have been changed (it auto signs in without the internet on now, giving me error msges ) and for some reason that "feature" where you can't shut MSN down when you have explorer open has reactivated itself.

    He once tried to install things without me knowing about it.. GRRRRrrr!!!


    Ugh, I'm enabling my screensaver password so I don't have to log off when i leave... (it IS my computer). I'm lucky he was only on for a little while and didn't surf the web.
    Don't pay attention to this signature, it's contradictory.

    If you're using Windows XP/2K, you can disable his ability to run any type of software except for what is installed. Also, other accounts and more passwords needed.

    Also, just hit the Windows Key + L to lock the workstation

    Download/make a fake virus and then show it to him and tell him he downloaded it and now he can't use the computer.

    Pretend lots of files got deleted because of it and act really pissed, tell him you'll be working weeks to replace the work that was lost.

    Works everytime, although I keep all the n00bs except Kasracer's sister off my computer.
