Lock Your Acount
 
Lock Your Account.
Siblings And Chirldren Will Be F00led


First create a shortcut on the desktop.
To create a shortcut on your desktop to lock your computer:

Right-click the desktop.
New>Shortcut.
The Create Shortcut Window will open.
In the text box, type the following:
rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
Click Next.
Enter a name for the shortcut. You can call it whatever you want this wont effect the lock
you can also change the name later.
Click Finish.

Once it is made you can mess around with the Name(i.e. Cool Game) for fun or just Lock for your own use and/or change the icon to suit your needs.

Just double click and ta-da

P.S. Any form of locking will be useless if you have not got a passward for your user name.

Regards

lol, that\'s pretty much it... i think the secret is to rename the file to something other people will click.

windows key + l will also work for you.

Very old. o_O

If Fast User Switching is disabled, then it\'ll go to a locked screen.

The real idea is to change FireFox/Opera/IE links on the desktop/Start menu to this.

I prefer:

shutdown -s -f -t 0

though. :O

I\'m with Dan...watching a user\'s frustration as their machine shuts down while they\'re tryin to get to their pr0n is one of the funniest things in the world.
