I'd use a shortcut to "rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation" on the
dekstop, probably assigned a hotkey of Ctrl-Alt-L in conjunction with the
winexit.scr screensaver.

That way the user hits Ctrl-Alt-L to lock the workstation, then if they don't
return within X minutes the screensaver kicks in and logs them out
completely.
