Login Password
The login password is used on a Microsoft Windows NT
Workstation to log into the system and prevent unauthorized users
from accessing your hard drive. Windows NT can have a multiple
boot menu that allows users to boot up Windows 3.1 or Windows
95 and, thus, bypass Windows NT security.
Identifying Quick Controls
The Quick Controls establish security measures on your computer
when it is on, but not in use. After setting the power-on password
in Passwords Properties, the following Quick Controls can be
enabled or disabled on the Computer Security tab:
■
QuickLock—Locks the keyboard and pointing device while
the computer is running. It leaves your data on the screen, but
prevents it from being accessed by the keyboard until a power-
on password is entered.
■
QuickBlank—Used in conjunction with QuickLock, clears the
screen when the keyboard and pointing device are disabled.
■
QuickLock on Suspend—Locks the keyboard when the
computer enters Suspend.
