You don't have to, but most of the time - from my experience - IT techs are too busy to "play with your machine". I know there have been bad stories about that. At the least you should change your login password and clear all your cookies/history/etc.
No they won't. Setup a separate admin account for them to use (called Apple with no password), as it means they can't accidentally snoop, and you don't have to give out your admin password.
