Re: How Secure is Windows, Really?

Last night I downloaded the latest Quicktime version and installed it.
This morning when I checked my morning email, I found that the laptop 

was

not locked and the screen saver was set to NONE which disabled the
password protection.


This probably belongs in PC-Tech but since you brought it up...  :)

I got an iPod for Christmas and downloaded iTunes which, somewhere along 
the way, updated Quicktime.  Since then I've also noticed that my password 
lockout was no longer functioning.  At least you're not alone in your 
problems.
