RE: Transparent Screen Lock for Win NT/2000/XP

[Angie Urtel <aurtel () fastenal com>]

I played with it a little since it was nicer than the Clear Screen Saver by
MS.  However, if you are running virtual desktop software, it only locks the
desktop you're on, not the others.  Hence, I could bounce my mouse and get
to my secondary desktop that was completely active even though my primary
desktop was locked and protected.  That was the kicker for me, at least on
client machines.

We have been testing the Transparent Screen Lock 



http://www.e-motional.com/TScreenLock.htm



It basically allows you to prevent access to a Windows server

but allows the display to be visible.Before going ahead with 

a large scale installation I was wonderingif any of you guys 

have had any experience with it (Both good orbad) that may 

affect our decision.
