I'm at a very small company... we have 8 people working in the office
here.
I don't know that much about how to set up passwords or if using the log
on
password is effective enough. I do not have that set up now. I am one of
3
owners here, almost everyone in the office has keys to get in here on
evenings and weekends. We are to small to have an IT person let alone a
department. So we are pretty much on our own. One person here is best
with
pc's and does what she can to keep us up and running but doesn't seem to
know if the windows log on is secure enough to prevent other people on my
machine.

1. It seems you have not investigated security provisions
of the MS OS already installed.
2. MS sells additional security software e.g. Forefront.
If you lack confidence in in installing and operating it,
you could pay a contractor to do it for the company.
