[QUOTE="Levi, post: 452091, member: 33973"] If you just go to System Preferences>Accounts, you can access all your password/login settings. OS X MUST have a password set for admin features (even if that password is blank/nothing), so there is already some level of password protection on your system. As for protecting it when you're away; just log out, then for anyone to use the computer they'd need to have their own account or know your password to log in. [/QUOTE]
