Amazing story. I was amused for all of 5 minutes.

Try formatting your system, if worse comes to worst. A system restore, or re-installed operating system might help. If he just installed a protection program to block your access to the computer, try finding the process and killing it, or atleast stop it from starting up with the computer.

Without knowing what the protection is called thats as much as I can help you.
