Vista-Lock

[EdgeMoragan]

Okay, I've tried and tried to get it to happen so I could learn what keys do it, but I can never seem to force it to happen with any amount of button jamming. Despite this it constantly happens as I'm chatting normally ingame.

Some sort of combination of keys I am hitting is locking the computer, whenever that happens my windower gets cancelled. I've tried sniffing around but only find info about XP doing this, and the process that causes it is different.

Which keys are they? Or better yet how do I turn it off?

Windows key L

According to http://allhotkeys.com/windows_vista_hotkeys.html :

Windows logo key +L
Lock your computer (if you are connected to a network domain), or switch users (if you're not connected to a network domain)

I don't have Vista, so dunno if that is right. Just did a simple google search of "vista hotkeys".

That is correct. Windows key + L is exactly what was just described. I'm running Vista at work and rely on that to lock my machine when I walk away from it. I'm not sure if there's a way to disable it, but since it's difficult to hit that combo when you know about it, I'd say just try avoiding it. >.>
