Hmmm, virus?

Lately, whenever I boot up my computer, and then start IE, I notice that my "Security level" has been changed to either High or Medium high. Hence, bye-bye cookies.
There is only one user registered on this computer. The computer is still fast, so I don't think any virus is slowing it down.
But is there a petty worm, or macro virus, that raises your security level on IE?

Does anybody else use the computer? Maybe you should try passwording it (BIOS or Windows), or changing your password, for a while to rule out the human factor. Or just ask 'em.

3 other people - my family.
And none of them really know anything about computers, I doubt that they would know what a security level is, let alone cookies.

heh, well just cause they dont actually know what theyre doing doesnt mean it isnt as easy as *point, click* to tweak around settings. use passwords if someones gettin crazy

Actually, I just found out that my dad was fooling around with the security settings.
I told him off, though, lol.
