AppleLock [Beta] – lock your Mac
Mac OS X is without question the most advanced operating system on the planet. There is just a tiny little problem when you are using your Mac in your office. You cannot lock your session with a keyboard shortcut like on Windows.
AppleLock is an easy and fast way to lock your Mac Session. Just download AppleLock and double-click on “AppleLock.prefPane” to install the application.
Now press Shift-Cmd-L (default shortcut) and lock your session!
Download the Beta Version
Tiger, Leopard Support
Planned for the final version (1.0).
Multi-user Support
Planned for the final version (1.0). There are some technical limitations…
Language Support
Planned for the final version (1.0). It would be nice if you help me to translate AppleLock in your language. (German, French is already done)
Future Enhancements
Speech recognition, Automatic lock, other ideas?

Would be perfect if it could switch off the monitor after locking.Perhaps you can add it as an option?

Dude, this app is awesome. The one thing missing that Windows had. Thanks for making and sharing this.
