I wonder how hard it is to program this autolock thing? I'm sure it is implemented by some special software work places have and/or Windows tweaks the average guy hasn't found yet.

Hitting CONTROL-ALT-DELETE should get the speech back. At my work, the IT folks have the computers programmed to lock after 20 minutes of inactivity. If I am in the office when it happens, I hear JAWS read the screen that pops up, and then it goes silent. Fortunately, this does not effect the Braille display, so I can read that screen with the Braille display, even though there is no need to, because all I have to remember is to hit CONTROL-ALT-DELETE and enter my password, hit ENTER, and then everything is bakc to normal for at least 20 more minutes. The interesting thing though, and a bit off topic, is that for some reason, this automatic lock thing is defeated by Window Eyes.
