so on my machine running XP and im having a dilemma, heres the scoop

i dont want my roomate to use my computer...but he needs the password for the actual OS so he can access SMB file share for media to streaming on the xbox...i dont really want him snooping around on my computer, using the internet, fucking with my utorrent, burning data, it just seems like an invasion of privacy, not that im hiding anything, its just principle, besides, my older iMac is a community computer in the living room, he should just use that and put up with shitty wireless

anyway

does anyone know of any software that is good that give me complete admin control of specific programs and all that. or maybe a USB stick code that needs to be inserted before you can access data/programs

here are options ive been considering

1. put a lock on my door, he should have any reason to be in my room, and i have my lifetimes worth of data that is irreplaceable, i should have locks on my door anyway regardless

2.install software to prevent him from gaining access to my computer

3. move the xbox to my room, this would require me buying a TV ($30 off craigslist)

4. confront him and tell him i dont want him fucking around with my shit, be respectful of my belongings and tell him im nice enough to let him use the iMac and thats what he should get

ive also been thinking about installing keystroke software to see exactly what he is doing while im gone

really my main problem is that he closes my utorrent and reopens it right before i get home, im downloading a few 100+GB files and they have to check the data when its reopened, its just a pain in my ass that i shouldnt have to deal with, i should just put locks on my doors


thanks in advance
