Locking windows desktops

from Stardock Forums
Hey,

I have installed Vista on one of our desktops as a test run. We are running MP Pro 1.10 on this machine and it is primary connected to three secondaries running XP Pro with same version MP. When locking the desktop on the secondaries it also locks the primary. Kinda a pain when having to lock multiple machines. Is there any fix for this?

Thanks,

I am now running MP Pro 1.20 and still the same problem as above. When locking any of the secondary machines (which are XP Pro SP2) with the windows key + L it also locks the primary (which is Vista). So, I have to unlock the primary again and again just to lock any of the other secondaries. Any help on this would be great.

Thanks,

Matt

Use [ctrl]-[alt]-[backspace] on the secondaries to lock them.
This, and other tips are in the readme.txt.

Winkey + L is special on Vista and cannot be blocked by an application.
