QUOTE(gary_cheah85 @ Oct 13 2006, 03:55 PM) winlogon is not good. currently i'm using mylock from smarthumb works well by installing into ur thumbdrive. just activate and unplug thumbdrive. keyboard disabled even after reboot. for my experience i wont encourage to use thumdrive. if one day your thumdrive is missing or been steal,than you can't do anything on your PC again... QUOTE Can you edit it? or each time you need to manually type in syskey and the password? what you mean this?..

if u just going off to get a coffee or toilet, and your colleagues not IT savvy just log off by switching users would be the fastest.
don't log off your user, as it will close your programs and stuff, very slow to start back up.
