    Give him a bitch account that doesnt allow him to install any software or run unapproved applications through the security policy.

          Fuckit then. Just set yourself up as an admin and remove all the user accounts. Lock the motherfucker down.

            Bingo.

            Shit, toss on a bios password. Nuclear option will stop most people.

              I keep my computer on at all times and have it just ask for a password when ever I come back to it. bios passwords can be gotten around too...

                locked down as much as I can to administrator only clearance. but dont know if that'll do the trick. I just downloaded the utility he uses to see what all it lets him to and see if I can stop it
