A screen saver that only locks the computer, without doing anything with the display?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Dear friends:

Is there a screen saver that only locks the computer,without doing
anything with the display?

I have found many beautiful and sophisticated screen savers that,
apart to lock the computer after a specific period of time, they show
pictures nice images on the screen. The problem is that some of them
take a lot of resources, specially memory, and others, from time to
time, lock (or crash) the desktop when one wants to use the computer
again.

So, I want to return to the most simple solution. For security
reasons, I must use a locking screen saver, but is there one that only
locks the computer, without doing anything with the display? And if it
exists, where can I download it?


Thanks
