Simple. He probably made your account "limited".
So, reboot
the machine, and press F8 the entire time while rebooting,
untill a black screen appears, with the option of Safe Mode on it.
Select Safe Mode
(using the arrow keys) and let the computer come up.
When it finally loads, it should either take you to the desktop or take you to the login screen, with
the account "Administrator" there.
If you click it, it should log you in, as the Administrator (in safe mode).
Now go to your User Accounts, in Control
Panel (depending on what version of windows you use), and find your account.
Once you have found your account, go in and make it an
Administative Account. Now you need to reboot the maching, and let it come up normal.
Login, as yourself, and you should be an
Administrator.
Now you can do everything that HE can do.
