Without a multimeter, I don't think there's a sure way to know exactly what happened. That would need to be a VERY faulty laptop brick because I've never even heard of one failing so hard that it messes with other appliances plugged into the same strip as it, but if removing it fixed the problem... Well, you could plug it back in and see if it messes with the PC again. Over current protection is a possible cause here.

It is faulty to the point sparks shoot out when you connect it to a laptop

Wow, that's an impressive failure.

Consider throwing it into a volcano to ensure it never harms humanity again.
