Thanks David for your response.  The only problem with that is that it does 
lock the keyboard but one can still access the computer with the mouse.
The WindowsKey+l actually locks you out and you need to use the regular login 
process to get back in.
I probably need to live with the problem but wondered whether any one else had 
the problem and whether there is a fix rather than a work a round.
Regards

Hello Tom;

give the following a try;
insert+spacebar,
now press the letter "l"=lock 
it's a toggle so perform the same steps to unlock the keyboard.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] when locking my computer

At work we are requested to lock our computers when not at the keyboard.
The key stroke I use is windowsKey+l.
I am running jaws 13 latest build and xp service pack 3.

When I envoke the WindowsKey+l it is not only locking my computer but it is
also freezing my keyboard.  It looks like as though jaws loses the keymap
files so the keyboard does nothing and I have to do a hard reboot.  It is
intermittent and I haven't identify anything that would cause it to do so.  
Has anyone else experienced this and have you found a resolution?
Thanks
Tom Bisset
