Hit F8 while computer boots. You shoudl get a special menu in DOS. Select Safe Mode.
Log in under Administrator.
Go to Control Panel and select USER ACCOUNTS
Add a password to the ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT and also your regular account.
Reboot.
(The reason i had you make an admin password is that you can bypass your regular account password via Admin if you dont have a password created for it)

CTRL + ALT + DELETE
Click on "Lock Computer"...
This is assuming you have a password to log-onto the system with, and your computer's desktop is set-up to allow it.
Or, as someone else posted, START + "L"

The best way to do this (assuming you are using windows xp) is to click the start button and click on control panel. from there click on user accounts and then click on your account (or your name.) after this click create a password.The rest is fairly self explanitory. Hope this helps, bye!
