I can lock my workstation in its current state with a password until I return and enter my password again. Best of all, it will continue to do any processing that was begun before the station was locked. NT is soooo cool ! Also, for what it's worth, I've taken my system to many of my clients offices and no one has ever touched it without my permission. What kind of clients do you have ? - Chris Wieczorek
