Yes, Go to Start ---> Run and type eventvwr in the dialog box. Press OK. This will open Event Viewer. Open up the Security Log and look for any successful logon attempts around the time you suspect someone logged on. Need any more help just email me at: chapers_16@hotmail.com

since you are new to computers , it is better to let the SPYBOT decide ..... only an advanced user is able to do the changes

Two questions:\n1. Are you the administrator?\n2. What program is it?\n\nIf you are the administrator, you can change them by using your password-protected and loggin into your account.\n\nIf you are not an administrator, then, ask the administrator to take them away

Start by changing your password...

i work for a wireless company. i'm assuming you mean when you call into customer care. i know the company i work for will not let you have access to the account, make changes (address change, etc) without the password. if you're talking about his online acct, you can normally request a password change on the website. all you have to do is be able to verify the security question on his online account.\n\nPS i know this is probably not what you wanted to hear, but i'd rather tell you the truth, rather than blow smoke up your *ss

Lots of things can have passwords, you need to say whose password you want to change.

They're not going to care. Heck, they might copy the tools from you. But if it's a hardware problem, they might never even see the tools. You might make a "Valet" type account so you can give them access to the system without giving them access to your data and programs.

lol!! just after you turn the computer on hit shift f8 then boot in safe mode this will allow you to bypass the password and security settings.

Everythign is possible in this life.. they might have a program sitting in your computer that sends them all your pressed keys.. no matter how you change it, they will still see it.... \n\nIf you have doubts.. I suggest reinstalling windows, changing all passwords, click on save me, remember me in all your emails so you dont have to enter them and you would have more safety....\n\nRuben

Does someone else know your id/password? If it is saying you are signed in in another location, someone is using your id and is signed in on another computer.

Opps.\n\nRestart the PC in Safe Mode (this should come up as an option at boot stage).\n\nNow find the folder and right click on it.\n\nChoose the security settings and change them so that your user account has full access.\n\nReboot.

That is a BIOS password.\n\nThe owner of the computer can set the BIOS to check for a password prior starting up let alone letting anyone try to log onto the windows.\n\nSounds like your sis is tired of you using the machine.

the options would be dimmed if a password has not been selected\n\nalso if i remember correctly to change the password  in an administrator account you must log on with the password for that account when you have multiple administrators

Have the Administrator give you rights.\n\nIf he won't, hack into his account using BIOS cracking passwords. The link to most is included in sources.
