No. Your colleague treated your notebook very badly. Use the restore
cd's (or whatever restore techniques the OEM set up for your laptop)
and take the machine back to factory condition. If you are unsure how
to do this, contact your laptop mftr.'s tech support or look on their
website for a manual. Obviously you will want to back up any of your
data first.
