While I was away from my comp, my colleagues trolled my windows 7 computer, and now occasionally windows locks as I am typing, or a tab closes randomly. :)

I noticed a colleague typing in a powershell on these occasions, so I suspect a powershell remote script. I tried disabling all remote dekstop accesses, but the issue still happens. I don't know what else could be causing this. Any tips? I will only be able to verify answers in a few days :) )

I am thinking of installing a Charles proxy to verify that the issue is on the desktop and not from a remote connection.

I also found a Citrix Receiver, but uninstalling it did not help.

Powersploit is a whole framework for remotely "pranking" people.

Try changing your login password, unless those other users have admin rights to your computer, in which case, you can't do much.

They could also just be using psexec from SysInternals. I once used this to prank someone in my office. Basically I just sent a popup message window to the user with some sort of message.

No additional software would have needed to be installed on your PC but I'm pretty sure they would need admin rights on your PC.

Other than that it is a great tool for doing some remote commands on servers and client machines...
