<begin rant>
Man I don't know what it is but EVERY time my folks come over my stepdad always has to go messing with my computer. I had to work today and my wife called and said he was in there the whole time they were there and everytime she walked by he had something different pulled up. What is up with this man??!! Why does he feel the need to go through my stuff when I'm not there. GET YOUR OWN pRon!!! He tried to pull up UT and couldn't figure out what to do to play. ANd then calls my wife "What did I do??" Arghh!! I'll put a bios password on it next time damnit!!

Put bios, bootup and SS passwords into it, any Windows version does it and that way, no one but you (or your wife) can access it. I do that with all mine to keep my 16 yr old son off my stuff and it works, he can't use them.

Win2K pass is far better than 95/98/ME.

or you could use boot magic to lock him out. I do that with mine since my father knows how to get around the bios password.
