Just wondering if there's anything out their that will lock your laptop when you shut your laptop screen.
I couldn't find anything so I am asking you :)
Thanks.

Is this what you mean?

Surely the whole 2 seconds it takes to power a laptop on from standby isn't that much of a problem? As this will lock the system...

If there's something you still don't like about that.... in Linux I would just set it to Disabled and write an ACPI hook. Dunno if you can do that jazz in Windows though.
