Without proper security solution you should not use your PC for critical usage like financial transactions. If it was my PC, I would never handover my PC to other person who use it as a 'table top deadbody', for teaching purpose! There is a chance your data would be stolen or viewed. You may try the following:
- Make sure you have latest backup of your data.
- If you are not familiar to scan the for viruses, ask the help from most trusted guy. Your friend can help you but dont giveout the pc for practicing while your data is still there.
- For a better result, Format the PC (formatting will erase all data!), install Operating system loaded with latest patches and Antivirus updates, Swith on the firewall.
- Restore your Data from the cleaned source.
Good luck.
