Not by choice

I installed a new OS, "Indego Platinum" on my main PC and for some reason that escapes me it won't connect to the web.
No problem sez I, I'll use the laptop for a few days until I get things sorted.
Then I went for my afternoon beer break and my daughter in law decides to use my laptop for a bit. Now it's asking me for a "power on" password, something I didn't set up, so don't know.
She swears she didn't do anything, but for now I'm doing what little work I can on my wife's computer which has none of the software I need.
So if worse comes to worse and I have to bring my puters to the shop, I'll have to install everything on to the wife's and seriously interfere with her facebook time.
Am I the only one who needs at least three puters to stay online?
I'll have all submissions listed by Monday anyways, hopefully sooner.
