[QUOTE="XJ-linux, post: 453610, member: 33722"] OK, it's probably been asked before, but a search didn't reveal anything helpful. So, riddle me this Batman... Is there any way to lock the desktop on OS X 10.4? I know it can be put to sleep from the Apple menu, but I was wondering if there is any Windows-esque "Ctrl-Alt-Del" method where it doesn't sleep, but requires a password to unlock. My main concern is to keep my cat from mucking things up when she walks on the keyboard while things are running (burning a disc, tarring an archive, installing software, etc) but I am not at the Mac. Anyone? Thanks, -Dave [/QUOTE]
