My computer is utilized by several people. Lately
unwanted programs are appearing. How do I control adding
and/or deleting programs so that only one person is able
to do so?

Put them all in the 'Restricted Group"

Run | "control userpasswords2" (no quotes) | Highlight a user | Properties
| Group Policies | Pick one

In addition to putting those people on a Limited Account, you should
password protect your sign-in plus the Admninstrator's in safe mode (F8 when
booting up)
