um hi not sure if this goes here.
i need help,heres the deal
me and my little brother share a laptop,hes 12 i'm 15 now when ever i use the computer i notice that he'll be downloading po*n and crap like that,i've told him to stop,because if our parents find out they won't even think for one second that it could be their 12 year old
so we have safe eyes for the internet,so he can't go on "sites" on the internet unless theres a slip up in safe eyes,so i know that he mainly uses limewire to download the "stuff"
so i've been going into lime wire into saved items(or whatever it's called)and been deleting them when ever i can,and going into recently changed(in my computer)and sending the files to recycling bin,then emptying the bin.
does that get rid of the "stuff"
because a family friends does the work on our computers(spyware removal and anything else,hes got a shop)and if he saw the "files"he'd tell my parents.
and i know we have spyware because the computer is running very very slow, and whenever i start up the computer a program called total spy pops up and asks for a product key,i've googled total spy and it;s a virus.
so in short.
how to i get rid of all traces of the "files" and is there anyway i can put a pass on stuff so he can't download with out a pass?(it's my computer,but i have to let him use it)
any help would be a god sent.
thanks
p.s. i've tried the spyware removal guide in this forum,and it doesn't work for me cause i'm computer illiterate (plus i can get it done for free anyways )
