How do I lock windows vista?

I’m running windows vista 64bit, and I would like to be able to lock my computer, so only I can unlock it. Usually “alt-ctrl-del” does this, but for some reason now it just brings me to an icon that anyone can click and log back in.

I would like it to fully lock, and be password protected. I would ALSO like it to prompt for a password on startup, so no one could bypass the lock with a reboot..

I bought the computer new from dell, and I have no idea if I was prompted for a password when I set it up; if I did, I’m sure I’ve forgotten it..

Can anyone help??

What should I do about a cellphone texting issue?

I have a Razr phone. I received a random text message and now everytime I try to view it the phone freezes and I have to remove the battery. I can’t even view it if I just go to my inbox and see it there, as that will freeze the phone too. When i try to delete it without actually viewing it…it gives me the error message that a locked text can’t be deleted. The strangest thing is I even tried a master clear and a master reset, and the message stayed. Does anybody know what I should do because I’m running out of ideas?
BTW my phone is out of warranty, and it’s still in contract so I need actual troubleshooting not just “buy a new phone.”
I work for an authorized Telus dealer…they don’t give free phones especially when you drop them.

How do I fix a problem with openning Norton Internet Security 2006?

When I open the program, the normal window for the program pops up, but only about half of the window loads and then the program locks up. I am running it on Windows XP. Also, the auto scan that I set up before I had this issue still works every night. My biggest problem is that the Norton Firewall is blocking most of my programs. Please help me out with a solution.

Are you prepared for a gunfight?

The first rule of a gunfight is to have a gun. That would be useless if it’s locked in the safe or in the car when you need it now.

A dangerous convict has just escaped out of prison. He has been running from authorities for a few weeks and now he is in your neighborhood. He breaks into your location. You have 5 seconds to react. Where is your gun?

Is there anything I can do about this teacher who used to be a bully?

Ever since I attended my friend’s high school 20 years reunion, it was for the class that graduated before mine. I was unhappy to see my bully was there. I found out that he is going to retire in two years and will be moving back here to teach the ROTC class.

When I was in high school, this bully nick named “Animal Mother” after a character in movie “Full Metal Jacket” He was highly ranked in ROTC, one of the most respected wrestlers in the state, and a cross country running star. He’d always picking on me and couples others. He would try to control every aspect of his victim’s life. He also has two or three goonies that worship him and will help him do whatever he wants to.
They always monitor my grades, manner, what I eat, etc…
Also if they caught anyone else bothering me, they’d make this person life miserable. Once one guy was bothering me really bad, so the cadet guy wait until this guy was in room by himself then turns the light off and beats on him really badly. The guy never knew who did it, but I do and I feel so bad about this for months.
In my freshman year, they made fun of my appearance because I never really cared much about my looks. Once they even unsuccessfully tried to hold me down and use fabric shaver to shave my head. They also would pressure me to get new clothes or even tie their pass down clothes to my bike and make sure I take it home with me.
Every couple months he’d pick one of his victims and give them moneys then force them to ask their crush out. If it didn’t work, they’d be force to ask other girl out until they get a date. There’s always at least one of them who would stalk by to check to make sure the victims was actually at the date with the date. I was lucky though, he did it to me only twice. It was most scary and stressful thing I done in high school. To make it worse, one was for home coming and he threaten to give me a wedge in front of my crush if I didn’t ask her. Then after home coming, he asked me for a wallet picture.
One time he found out I wasn’t taking a project for one class seriously, he made my life a nightmare for weeks. He or one of his goonies would trip me out of blue, gave me a wedge, shove me against other people, etc… I’ve been threaten to have my face shoved into toilet, getting locked in locker, and thrown in trash can.
In my junior year, he mercilessly tried to force me to apply for scholarship and college or trade school. To make things worse, he’d make sick comment such as “You know you want to do this”, “you will thanks me later”, “I’m your best friend out of all crowds, I’m only one who look out for your best interest” and other thins.
It was so bad that I nearly dropped out of the school because of them. But the main bully graduated in my junior year. My senior year wasn’t what would be great in many eyes but it was a bless to me. I did got bullied but none of them really care what I do or tried to make me do stuff at all.

I have two sons who will be in the same high school he will be teaching at in a couple years. This is really disturbing me, is there anything I can do about this?

Despite GOP defense of torture is it possible Cheney, Bush, Rove, et. al. are running scared?

Notice Bush and Cheney are silent lately? Could it be possible they are actually pretty frightened what might happen to them. They won’t be locked up but forever have their names a stain on American History. Which is just as bad for leaders of any country…
Regardless if they knew or not it is not their decision, it was an EXECUTIVE decision. Top down. Congress; both GOP and DNC had nothing to do with the decision making! Perhaps she kept it a secret so she could throw it back to the GOP criminals when the Democrats won back the Whitehouse! For all these people to defend torture is sad, America executed Japanese soldiers in WWII for using these techniques. Explain this to me all you torture defenders…HOW CAN AMERICA DEFEND SOMETHING WE EXECUTED OTHER NATIONS FOR DOING TO OUR SOLDIERS?
GOP approval is around 20 percent. No wonder why!

Firefox is already running, but is not responding. What?

Before you ask, yes… I searched this topic and got the same answers over and over again. This is my problem. I used to have Firefox, and then one day while browsing, a little message comes up that says there is an error and Firefox has to close. So I was like, no big deal. I started it up again with a new session and the same thing happened before it even got a chance to load. This happened six times. So I uninstalled Firefox, restarted, then installed it again. This time when I tried to start it, it says “Firefox is already running, but is not responding.” So I looked at processes… FIREFOX WAS NOT IN THERE! So I rebooted, started it up again, the same thing! I’ve tried everything. There are no locks, I’ve edited my firewall… I keep uninstalling and reinstalling… what the heck is wrong? It is making me miserable not having Firefox! Please, someone help!
This is a response to the comments below. Yes, I’ve tried deleting the folder in Program Files. Usually, if I uninstall it, it removes it for me. If not, I do delete it… so that’s not the problem.
