Do you ever let anyone else on your PC? Like family members or friends.

My sister checks her emails on my pc sometimes. I usually always find extra tool bars on my browser or some sort of spyware she has downloaded.

Any of you guys let anyone on your pc to mess with it?
 
nope, my family has their own pc, and i have mine
the amount of spyware and other crap they've got is insane
 
If they put anything stupid on it they know perfectly well I wouldn't be best pleased. So with that in mind, they can use it, but they've got to be good.
 
I would, it's not an issue really though as I have a PC in my room my bro has one in his and my mother has a laptop that she keeps downstairs.
 
No, just no

That is why it is my personal computer.

I did come back from a weeks holidays to find someone had been looking up naughty stuff on it while I was away though and was greeted with a fancy file eating virus :(
 
No. My computer is my computer. If someone really needs it, then yes they can use it, but I would still stay nearby... I have tons of bookmarks and such that I don't want other people peeking through.
 
Each member of my family has their own PC or laptop because of this very fact and because my family are all in touch with technology so like to have their personal e-freedom...until they break the machine and I have to fix it :p
 
I only have a laptop now and I do very little on it apart from browse OcUK and watch iPlayer. Anyone can use this one if I'm not on it as there's nothing secret.
