You could always just run an AT job with the cmd line below every 5 minutes... That's keep them on their toes... Not to mention tick them off a bit Then again, you do want to keep your job right? -----Original Message----- From: Sullivan, Glenn [mailto:GSullivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 6:37 PM To: 'windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [windows2000] Re: Tracking someone logging onto my PC Sounds good, but I'm trying to teach another habit... Ctrl-atl-delete, then enter. Lock Workstation from the Windows Security box, and I don't have to remember to set up an icon for it... As long as we're all secure, that's all that matters.

Now in addition, I set up a shortcut with the line below in it and set the Shortcut key to CTRL-ALT-L and tell my customers about it! %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation -----Original Message----- From: Sullivan, Glenn [mailto:GSullivan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 6:23 PM To: 'windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [windows2000] Re: Tracking someone logging onto my PC I think he is saying that you shouldn't rely on the timing feature of a screen saver to lock up your machine. I have had times where I have been gone from my desk for an hour and my screen saver never came on, and it is set (and verified) at 2 minutes. Three-finger salute as I stand up from my desk is my habit now. Glenn Sullivan, MCSE+I MCDBA David Clark Company Inc. -----Original Message----- From: Charles R.

So you say this method isn't secure? Or are you saying that someone might "assume" the screensaver is activated, walk away thinking that, but meanwhile it's not activated, thus leaving the computer open for some hanky panky? :-) >-----Original Message----- >From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Chris McEvoy >Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 7:49 AM >To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [windows2000] Re: Tracking someone logging onto my PC > > > >Why don't you lock your PC (ctrl-alt-delete-enter) before you leave >work? > >A password protected screensaver is not secure ... --- It's lights OUT for you viruses!
