sounds like he's logged in as administrator instead of
his regular name. go to Start\Run\control userpasswords2
and uncheck the box 'users must enter'. go to control
panel and find users. change the way you log on to
welcome screen. if it comes up administrator, simply
change to your user name and password if you have one.
See Marfer's notes on internet regarding disable of login.
Administrator comes up only if there is no other
designated admin.
