Apparently my dad got past my password and won't tell me how.
My login screen came up, as it's supposed to, and I was at a friend's house when this happened. It's a password no one would guess, save for said friend, and it's still the same now. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening again?
He did use Ctrl+Alt+Del.

disable the built in administrator account, thats most likely how he did it, because by default there isn't a password set for the admin account, go here to see how to change this:

Its either that or he has your computer KEYLOGGED which basically is a program thats hidden that records everything you type and puts it in a file for the person to look at later. To check for a keylogger installed and delete it install this:
Anti-Keylogger Elite is a utility designed to detect keyloggers and give you the power to Prevent Or Allow the keylogger to function..

It's impossible to fully secure a computer to which an attacker has physical access.

windows can easily be hacked. Why not use a live cd for your stuff you dont want to get caught at. Store all your files on a pendrive and keep it with you
