Review your rules of supervision - they will state what you can and can't do. You should also have a probation handbook. Read it. It is your PO's job to make sure you are not endangering yourself or the community. If you don't have anything to hide what should it matter what your PO looks at.

Answer 2

Yes he can. If he finds any material on the computer hard drive that violates your probation, he can take the computer and put you in jail for probation violation.
