Right-click on the desktop and click Properties. You can set it on the screen saver tab.

the old screen saver password has been replaced in Win2k with the regular user password. If you disable the screen saver password, it will stop doing that. Also, set it to 0 minutes.

If you do want to lock the computer manually, press CONTROL-ALT-DELETE then ENTER for (Lock Computer)
