Lockout Security

[TOM]

Hello,

I am working on a class that will be called from multiple
forms, which will start a timer count down 15 min. When
there is mouse activity the timer is reset to 15 min. This
way if a user leaves the program open and leaves there
desk it will save and lock, making them reenter there
username and password. The whole mouse activity might not
be the way to go, is there a better way to see if the user
is still using a workstation?
