What the heck did I just type?

Ok, I just fat-fingered the TAB key and it locked my XP workstation. Normally I would hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, K to do this. But somehow one short keystroke accomplished the same thing. What did I accidentally hit?

:confused:

Windows key + L

Nah. That would log me off, not just lock the workstation. Besides, my fingers were on the other side of the keyboard away from the L.

Strangeness.

If you press it together it does lock...I use it all the time...

Correct. Windows Key + L = lock

Indeed, that does work. Not what I hit before (left side of keyboard with two fingers). Nice shortcut, though.
