Answer 1
Tisha B'Av is a day of mourning and some rules that apply to Sabbath apply to Tisha B'Av. I am not Jewish myself, but I'd use the computer only to do urgent works, that cannot be delayed for tomorrow.
Answer 2
The prohibition of work on Tisha B'Av is somewhat similar to Chol Hamoed and Purim: non-essential work is forbidden, as is work that can't be completed quickly. Turning lights on and off isn't restricted, but things like getting an auto tune-up or doing home repair should be put off until another day. Also, anything that would distract one from the day's mourning shouldn't be done. Reasons for which computer use may be permitted on Tisha B'Av would include cases of medical use (i.e. the computer controls a respirator etc.); or, for example, to look up directions for how to get to a particular synagogue for prayer services.
