Lock Your Screen with ActiveScreenLock

This small article explains why you need to lock your screen and how easy it is.

Why do you need to lock your screen?

People need to protect their office computers from unauthorized access. What is the best way to do it? Of course, you can set a password for BIOS, turn your computer off and leave the work place. But this is not easily done, since most people don’t even know what BIOS is. Besides, sometimes we have to leave PC turned on (especially if they are in the network). How then can we protect a running computer from unauthorized access? The solution is easy – simply lock your screen with a password only you will know. However, there are no default tools in Windows to lock your screen. No problem, download ActiveScreenLock.

Then install and launch it. Do not be afraid, that it will lock your screen right away. It will not do that. The program first asks you for a password. Enter and confirm it. Now you can customize this program to your needs. For example, you can set wallpaper, change color of clock, change log options and select the elements that should be hidden from the screen. When you are finished, press the "Lock" button to lock your screen. Now you can leave your workplace without worrying that somebody will screw something up. Do not worry about your PC – its screen is securely locked with ActiveScreenLock. If someone tries to enter a password to unlock ActiveScreenLock, his (or her) attempts will be logged and wrong passwords will be saved. ActiveScreenLock cannot be closed, because key combinations Alt+F4, Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+Tab, and WinKey are blocked. When you return to your desk, simply enter your password to unlock your screen and continue working with your PC. If you would like to lock your screen again, launch ActiveScreenLock. Or you can lock your screen by double clicking ActiveScreenLock icon in system tray (near the system clock).
