| 701988 | 2008-09-02 06:46:00 | Hi Guys, when I come home at night from a hard days work the last thing I feel like doing is to reset al my settings back into the computer, you know wrong desktop, icons missing etc etc, but I still love my little angels!! My wife is here during the day and our pc is on 24/7, is there ANY free little program that locks the pc up, so even IF the little angels play around with the mouse or keyboard our stuff is saved! |

| 701992 | 2008-09-02 07:32:00 | steadystate looks good. I'll have to look into that to see if If it something I could recommend to customers. An easy solution as pointed out above, is to create multiple users & log out or switch user when you are finished. If you just want to keep everyone else out while you aren't around, you can set a password & press the windows & L keys together to lock your computer. |
