Default Switch User

Hi people,

I know in windows when you dont want other pesky household members getting on your computer username while your not there you can just click "switch user" this ultimately just locks down your desktop until you get down i believe. But not, when i click it, it doesnt work. It just sits there reading the HDD for a min and then decides not to do it! i could press log off but this will end all my programs and i dont want that! Any idea's of what is going on?

Andy

Is there only one user profile setup on the computer?

If there are "guest" accounts, it shouldn't refuse...but it won't do squat if yours is the only user account that exists.
