Re: disable lock button beside power button?
George
There is no way to do this in Vista.
You can workaround this by creating a shortcut on the Desktop to shut down
the computer.
Right click the Desktop and select New/Shortcut.
In the first dialog type: shutdown.exe /s /t 005
Click Next and name the shortcut SHUTDOWN COMPUTER. Click the Finish
button. When she double clicks this file, the computer will shut down after
a 5 second delay.
