Hi again

is there anyway of preventing a user shutting down the pc
regardless of whether they are at the welcome screen or
logged on whilst an admin account is logged on but locked.
my problem is not preventin shut down at the welcome
screen it is preventing shut down when logged on whilst
my account is logged on but locked.

thanks
chris
