RE: Laptop program locker
Is this what you mean?
Control Panel > Ease of access > Mobile PC > Power Options > Change what closing the lid does

RE: Laptop program locker
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.
