How best can I protect my PC that is in the form of locking it. I use an open office where everyone has access to my PC, so what i need to do is to lock my profile. If you know how best I can do it please help me.

Simon:
Hi Mafunga, and welcome to PC Pals.

Can you tell us what operating system you are using?  If you have XP, it may be as simple as creating passwords for different user profiles.

DJ:
If its NT it's usually a case of CTRL + ALT + DEL and 'lock workstation'.

Of course if your IT people haven't sorted log on ID's and Passwords it's going to be difficult to lock the PC in the first place  ;)

You can do what DJ1UK said with 2000 too :)

Unfortunately if you have Win 98 you will need some third party software as the security on that is pretty useless.
