Well, then she doesn't get her PC back, and she is forbidden from using other computers even at the library (unless it's strictly for homework). Pretty simple to me. One time of going through the process will teach her to be a little more conscientious about what she downloads/installs, and how to maintain it. Harsh lessons are the best ones, and are the ones I favor for my kids. No need to yell, threaten, spank, etc.
