Are you in a windows 2000/2003 domain?<br />
<br />
If so then you can use group policy to disable the locking function.<br />
<br />
Note that you have to have SP2 installed for this to work because there was &nbsp;a glitch that still allowed the machine to be locking using the windows + L key..but Microst claims to have fixed this in SP2<br />

Hi,<br />
How do I Disable pressing the windows flag key +the L key command locking down a xp pc for a user.<br />
It's just becoming a bit of a problem with shared pc's at my school with &quot;users&quot; walking away and locking<br />
them with this command even though they leave their name so we know who it is!<br />
<br />
Thanks kb<br />

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
