Protect WINDOWS with a Screen Saver

The Windows logon password is somehow weak, by pressing CANCEL you can still gain access. The trick is to use a password protected screen saver launched at StartUp to restrict access. Here's how you can do it:
Open WINDOWS folder
(c:\windows) select a Screen Saver (.scr) and COPY.
Go to
C:\WINDOWS\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp
right-click and Paste Shortcut, remember to Password Protect your screen saver (right-click on desktop and select
PROPERTIES) Click on the Screen Saver Tab, select the same screen saver (you used to create the shortcut) and set a password.


Create your own Icons

Not quite satisfied with Windows icons, do you want more ?
In fact you can create your own icons, it's very easy.
Use
Paint at Start - Programs - Accessories and design your image, remember to keep the size 32x32 pixels (default size for icons) When saving just type something like my-icon.ico Make sure you specify an ico extension, 32x32 pixels and 256 colors.
