I'm using Windows XP Home Edition and I've set up a screen
saver password.

Is it possible to lock the computer immediately, without
waiting for the screensave to kick in using XP Home
Edition?

I know that it's possible with XP Professional but have
been unable to figure out how to do it with the home
edition.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
