Perhaps he used your session while you were out of the room? Basically
however I am inclined to suggest, from my own experience with my children,
that, if he has the technical skills and/or curiosity to do this sort of
thing, you are on a hiding to nothing limiting his access and would be
better agreeing protocols as to the use of the PC and/or keeping a physical
eye on him (while also making sure that you have decent backups!). Sorry if
this is no help.
