Lock this computer

[David]

What is the option "Lock this computer " that is in the menu that pops up
when a ctl alt del is accessed ? I don't find any reference to this option
from Vista help.

A simple Google search revealed this:

"When you use the lock option, other people can't use your computer or
see your documents. This can be useful if you need to be away from your
computer but do not want to log off or put your computer to sleep, for
example when you are going to lunch. If you lock the computer, only you
or an administrator can unlock it."
