My younger brother claims that he can disable my Sky movies from his room.

He hinted about using the internet to do it but I can't find anything online that helps

I need two things:

1. A way to stop him from doing this to me
2. How to do it to him first so I can launch a pre-emptive strike

Help me Escapist, you are my only hope

When you ask people to outsmart your younger brother, you have already lost.

1. Kick him
2. Not necessary

While I have no expertise in using the internet to disable features I think I have a solution.

1: Get some duck tape.

2: Tape him up while he drops his guard.

I've only lost if I give up, since he is using the internet in this war there is obviously no ban on it.

Your suggestion has merit but I do need my brother to help paying the rent so it needs to be something a bit less physical and a lot more psychological.

If that fails I can always use the duck tape

He is bluffing, he can do no such thing.

Now give him a good arse kicking when he has is guard down.

Well if he's got a sky box in there, he's probably just going into the parental control settings and fucking them up. Why don't you test his claim first? I think he might be trolling you.
He does have a sky box in his room cos we're on multi-room but he gave the impression that he can disable the movies completely and re-enable them when he likes

I did consider that he might be bluffing but I wanted to watch a film so it didn't seem like the time to call his bluff

If thats the case then I just need to think up my revenge, feel free to offer up suggestions

Sadly, that's not true. You see, by admitting that you can't outsmart your younger brother, you did lose. Your younger brother's conditions for victory aren't stopping you from watching Sky movies. His condition for victory is making you look silly by panicking over a silly claim.

He's won.

I've only lost the upper hand, the war never ends the balance merely shifts

Although your posts seem designed to make me give up...... Are you one of my brothers' agents

If so tell him I will never surrender

Play the "I'm the bigger brother" card and if he goes through with his plan, embarass the shit out of him. Make up stories from when he was little even, so little that he wouldn't remember them. Then if that doesn't restore your internet, call everyone hen knows and tell these fabricated (or true) embarrassing stories to them. Better yet, post them on Facebook and tag all of his friends. That'll teach that upstart. Trust me, I have three little siblings. Also, you have already lost if you can't figure this out on your own.
 

Au Naturel.

...Well, you could go into your Desktop and have your Computer have a "Password" before logging in which goes under your Profile. If you wish to know how to do this simply go by this following order:
1) Go to Start
2) Go to Control Panel
3) Go to User Accounts
4) It will ask "Pick a Task" You will want to do these steps -
1] Create a New Account
2] Place info on it with a picture, then save it
5) Log off out of your computer

With these steps, now he can't log into your computer what so ever to even get do any threats. Let alone he is your little brother. If you wish to strike him, then it's best to buy him an advanced program that he'll be to busy working on so you may have time to work on something... like... I don't know a prank? Hope this helps cause when my Brother's who are older threatened I just did this and they couldn't log into my computer lol.
Unless he boots the computer up in 'safe mode', that overrides passwords. And now everyone here knows how to break passwords. Swish!

Probably should have clarified earlier my brother is 19, I have had 10 years of generally over drinking and smoking so he can probably kick my ass if it comes to it.

Suprisingly large number of suggestions of violence though
