Computer problem and the person who caused it. Please help! Apryl

Everything was fine with my pc until last Friday. My brother-in-law asked if he could use it for a job search. Of course, I told him to go ahead. Our pc is in our bedroom and my husband had just gotten home from work and I'd been up all night so we went to sleep and told him to just be a quiet as possible and follow are rules about our pc (no porn, no downloading anything etc...). This was about 9:30 am.

We woke up around 5:00 pm. He'd left around noon. Later that evening, my husband decided to get online and work on a game he is designing. He opened his browser (AOL) and saw a huge selection of porn (I won't go into what type of porn it was, but I'll just say it was the most disgusting thing I have ever heard of or seen). It wasn't something he had stumbled upon as they showed up as "AOL search results". He got really mad because we don't allow that trash on our pc.

Danny (my husband) had typed out a few quests for his game onto wordpad and was ready to copy and paste it into the game. The way the software works, you can't c and p with the mouse, you have to use ctrl + c and cntrl + v instead. Well, now it won't work. It worked fine until his brother used the pc. Also, our AOL hotkeys won't work anymore (they also use the cntrl keys).

Anyway, here are my two questions:

1) Should we confront his brother about the porn (he also has a girlfriend whose 8 weeks pregnant and would flip if she knew what he'd done) and the fact that he messed our pc up? He knows how we both feel about porn and we are both disappointed that he didn't respect our feelings. It makes it even worse that he'd do it with us lying asleep in bed not 2 feet away from him while he was doing it. I shudder at the thought. Wether we confront him or not, you can bet he'll never have access to our computer again.

2) Do you have any idea what he could have done to mess the ctrl keys up and how I can make them work again? I really don't think it's the keyboard itself because all the other keys work. We also took those two keys off and cleaned underneath them with no results.

Thanks,

Apryl

Date: 7/13/2003 8:53:00 PM  From Authorid: 8278    i'm sorry i can't help you on how to fix it, but i would confront him on it. he knew what the rules are and he broke them anyway. it was total disreguard for yours and your husbands wishes. let him know that he didn't get away with it and that he will never be allowed to use your PC again. if it makes it any easier, talk to him without his g/f around. she is in fragile condition and you don't want to make her upset  
Date: 7/13/2003 8:55:00 PM  From Authorid: 53900    Maybe go into your control panel where the keyboard section is and see if you can reset them?  
Date: 7/13/2003 8:58:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 36901    Thanks Jessica, I'll try that now.  
Date: 7/13/2003 8:58:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 36901    Thank you, Gage. I don't know him well enough to talk to him about something like this. I think Danny should do it. You're right about her condition (she also had a miscarriage a few months before she got pg) and I don't want anything bad to happen as a result of this. I'm going to have him read this post when he gets home from work.  
Date: 7/13/2003 9:00:00 PM  From Authorid: 36994    I say you should let him know about it, but his gf doesn't have to know about it, maybe from there you can tell him to show you how to set everything back, he should definately apologize to you, it's not right to disrespect someone else's property like that, good luck setting up your keys to normal!  
Date: 7/13/2003 9:44:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    those controls are in the control panel you should be able to go in and change them(set them back to the "defults") and empty out all your cashes) maybe run "adaware" to get rid of the ads... you can also check a site where it can point out anything pornographic that is on the computer(just be aware that not everything that is pulled up is something sexual it will pull up important things that you sorta need to keep that is the only flaw of the program) and yes do talk to him about it and do tell her.. it isn't right EXPECIALY seeing it WASEN"T his computer  
Date: 7/13/2003 10:04:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 36901    Thanks Carina and Midnightly!  
Date: 7/14/2003 6:03:00 AM  From Authorid: 46530    You should confront HIM about where he goes on your machine, he does not have the right to go anywhere that you dont want him to, these things are traced. Dont do it in front of her, but both you and your husband should make it clear that what he did was unacceptable. As far as the CTRL key, reset your keyboard. You may also want to make sure that the sites he's been to havent left any software on your machine. The best thing Ive found for this is SPYBOT (http://security.kolla.de/) which looks through your machine and gets rid of spyware, keyboard loggers and website trackers (software that sends all the sites you visit back to other people so they know where youve been and can send you email about it)  
Date: 7/14/2003 6:30:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 36901    Thank you SO much! How do I reset my keyboard? I went to control panel then keyboard but the only reset it had was for language.
