Description
-----------

Access Lock is an easy-to-use system-tray security application you can use
to secure your desktop when you are away from your computer. Just configure
the program, define a password and double click the Access Lock system-tray
icon every time when you need to disable and hide your desktop. While it is
locked, the system keys and taskbar are disabled and the mouse cursor is
trapped, unauthorized password entries are met with an audio alert and
logged to disk. The only thing is available in this mode is a pop-up
password-entry dialog with an input area for the password that restores your
desktop to working condition. Access Lock offers you two lockup methods. The
first method hides your desktop, shows a screen saver and allows people
around to leave messages, which you can see after unlocking. The second
method does not hide your desktop while locking and what is more, it allows
people around to watch it. It is very useful when you would like to
demonstrate something to people but do not want them to play with it. In
addition, the program has a built-in event tracker with a viewer giving you
an ability to spy on your PC users and other people trying to access to your
system. Also, an adjustable autoload/autolock option protects your desktop
when Windows starts. You will find the program interface very easy to
negotiate. Excellent online help is available.
