Is this a PC at work, or school that does not belong to you? Is it joined to a domain?
Someone with Domain Admin rights will have the ability to look at any and all files on any PC joined to his domain. They might have a program setup to scan. It might also just be a bored network admin perusing the files on various computers on the network (I used to constantly have to tell a VP of a company I worked for that keeping certain information in a Word document was not safe and secure.
If it is not a domain joined PC, then you need a better firewall application installed. If it's a work PC you are using, then you just need to be more careful what you have on that PC since it's not your property and the company has every right to do what they want with that PC.
