Ask you kids why they installed the other Windows version and where
they got it.

The kids needed to watch some 3-D porn. They borrowed a disk.

Ask them.

Media Center is a subset or XP Pro.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for XP Home to become Media Center.

You are either smoking dope, or you're a moron.

It is concievable that such a thing can be done by malware. Back up your
files and settings and rebuild. I don't see how you can trust such a system
in its present state.

Typo perhaps, but it's a *super*set. It has everything in Professional
(except for the ability to join a domain) and more.
