Hi I'm wondering if there is anyway to lock usage on my desktop but allow GB/HB to still run? Using windows key + L stops the bot from being able to interact with wow so is kinda pointless, the reason I'm needing this isn't that important but would be nice to be able to do many thanks in advance.

you could unplug the mouse... maybe get a USB hub, and take it away when you leave? Depends on what/who you are trying to keep off of the computer.

hahah thats a good idea.
im not sure if vista or windows 7 has it but i think on xp you could have the computer run its screen saver and then need a password to get out of screen saver mode. but this doesnt lock the computer so everything runs in the background. ill do a little digging around and see if i can find anything like that.
with windows 7 i foun that upon resume you can have it show logon screen. im not sure if this locks your computer as soon as the screen saver starts, or if it just locks and shows logon screen when someone tries to resume doing stuff on your computer

I left it for 5 minutes in that state and while the bot was "running" it was unable to interact with wow it was just sat in same spot as the dead raptor it had killed when I did it (using windows 7) I'm off to sleep now though so will see replies in about 8 hours g'day all!
