Fast User Switching
Authored by: Bodoggy on Dec 22, '04 05:37:50PM

This is exactly what I do with my girlfriend and it works perfectly. Since I cannot trust her to be bothered to log in to her account when she wants to use the PowerBook, I just choose "Login Window..." from the Fast User Switching menu every time I leave the computer. This forces her to login to her own account if she sneaks onto the computer when I am away.

Even sneakier (and geekier) I also have Salling Clicker set up to execute an AppleScript that goes to the login window whenever I move out of range with my phone.

Don't get me wrong, she's a gem, I just don't want anyone messing with my mad obsessive-compulsive organisation skillz.
