You walk out of the room and don’t want to leave your Mac accessible to anyone? The content on your hard drive are only meant for you to be seen?
Lock your screen - fast and easy with a widget. The widget is called Locker and only takes up a tiny bit of space on your Dashboard. You can download it here.
After the download is done, open the widget (in case it doesn’t open automatically) and place it somewhere convenient on your Dashboard.
Double click the widget to lock the screen of your Mac.
