deleting bad things Ok well one of my brother's friends always looks up..you know..bad stuff (like reading, looking, watching, every kind you can imagine) and it's so gross! and we only got one computer so imagine how grossed out i am when i see someone saved something on my acocunt..
Anyway, my computer breaks down sometimes so we gotta take it to get it fixed and one time the man told my dad that someone looks at dirty stuff so my dad's super suspicious.
Is there anyone i can do to delete all evidence form my computer other than the history so that people don't think it's me who watches it?

Set a password on your account so that your brother's friend can't get onto it in the first place. Give the password to your dad just so he doesn't get suspicious. If he questions you about why you did it, tell him. Say that you don't want whoever is using the computer to look at "bad stuff" to use your account.
To set up a password (just in case you're not sure) click the "start" button on the in the bottom left corner of your screen and then click on the name of your account. It's all the way on the top of the list of options that comes up when you click "start". When you click on your account name, a window titled "User Accounts" will come up. Click on "Home" then on your account. Click "Change my password" and you should be good from there.
Good luck! ]
I would just nuke the entire drive:

(I always have a DBAN disk halfway out of my floppy drive, just in case ;) )
If you prefer not to delete everything on the drive(including windows), read my answer here:
