Can you tell me if this python programme will get me in trouble with my organisation?

Thanks for your replies - really appreciated. Your instincts are very good.

He's young and experimenting - I don't think he'd do anything malicious. He said he just wanted to test it and it was a way of 'seeing a monitor on a different computer.' He started to install it and then said, 'oh, you don't have the program I need.' So in theory nothing happened.

POSSIBILITIES
1. It's exactly what he said. No harm done.
2. But when I was a teenager, if I could install something on someone's laptop to spy on it whenever I wanted, it would have been tempting. So I would have said the same thing to make them think it isn't installed. On that basis I assumed it's possible that it has installed, and it might even be able to do more than he said.

HOW TO TELL
If I run windows explorer search on the date and time that he installed it, I assume I should be able to identify any files? Or could it have gone behind the vision of explorer?
