Hey guys. I need a program that will lock out your desktop to anyone that doesn't have the password. I need it for me to be able to run and lock the desktop as soon as I leave the computer for a few minutes and then when I come back all I have to do is enter the password to get the desktop back. All of the free programs I've found on download.com allow you to End Task the locking program with Ctrl+Alt+Del which basically makes the program useless =\. Help please! I'm tired of my older brother and my sis's boyfriend playing dang games when i'm trying to work with my PC.....

I would assume that you are running Win9X or WinMe? I am running Win2K here at work so I will have to go home and look at what I can find on my PC there, but we need to know your OS.

What's a signature? Oh, those words that show up after all my comments? I don't need one of those!

Thanks but that does nothing more than Win-L does. I can still get on the computer by clicking my account name. I don't have a password set for my account. I don't want one either......All I want is something that will lock the computer temporarily until I get back while disabling access to Ctrl-Alt-Del...

Perhaps this freeware utility might help:
