After coming over to leatherhead as part of Pfizer Wave II PDA team i struggled for a few initial days with a IBM X40. More over that was a Finnish laptop where the language is hardcoded into the OS. So every thing ,was Finnish to me for a change and i was suitably finished!!

I rued the loss of a WinKey. Shortcuts as WinKey+L,WinKey+R was a staple diet.After a couple of days i decided to do a bit RnD about overcoming the loss of LOCK WORKSTATION.
After a bit of soul search and goggling i zeroed in the exact dll responsible for startup and lock function.

So i found out "rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation" combination and made a shortcut to it.
And viola i got my own Win+L shortcut :)
