I just stated making different users on my home computer. Is there a way to
automaticly log of a user if the machine is idle? and how would I set the
time limits for being idle?

Winexit.scr is a screen saver supplied with the Windows Server 2003 Resource
Kit Tools. It will automtically log off a user after a period of inactivity.

Windows Exit screen saver worked fine on XP. I haven't tried it on Vista,
but I expect it might still work okay. It's a free download:

Copy winexit.scr to System32 then select it via the Personalize options.

Hope it helps,
