I love this program. It is a screensaver that you can set to logoff, power down, restart, or run an app. You can choose to warn the user or not, set the delay for the warning, and force apps closed. The Microsoft link show how to make it policy. So easy. I include a *.reg file at logon to set the timeout for the screensaver.

The preceeding was from the "For What It's Worth" files, which by definition may be worthless. Take with a grain or ten of salt.
Hi Josh,
I'm having a look at all the software suggestions posted in this forum. There are some great programs suggested & lots of them are <font color=red>free</font color=red> - my favorite word! Unfortunately, ActiveExit isn't among them, although it does offer a free 30 day evaluation. After that, it costs $19.95 (US$).
Anyway, when I checked ActiveSaver I found it's been replaced. It's now called ActiveExit.
Here's a portion of what they have to say about ActiveExit:
<font color=blue>"Do users of your network forget to log off before leaving? ActiveExit™ may be of help: you can set it up as a screen saver that would logoff, restart, or shut down the computer automatically after a period of user inactivity. You can also make it run a program of your choice automatically before ending a Windows session (for example, to clean up the system after the last user). Or, if you have some irresponsible users who often shutdown the network computers unnecessarily, just for the fun of it or to give you one more thing to worry about, you could use ActiveExit to set up a password that would be prompted for whenever someone wants to exit Windows."</font color=blue>
