    There are ways to do it. But since this knowledge can be used maliciously, we hesitate from bringing it up without sufficient justification.
    Devoted my life to programming...

    I have an idea, a program, Which will lock my computer unless i will insert a specific USB, now, about the "locking" I thought I could just disable keyboard / mouse, simple as it is.
    I know there is something called, BlockInput but you can simply pree CTRL+ALT+DLT and exit.
    So if anyone has any idea, please ^^
    and for the record I will never use my knowledge maliciously.

    I thought I could make it password protected, but it's boring and I rather do something with challenge

    Have a look at LSA Authentication.
    What can this strange device be?
    When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
    It's got wires that vibrate and give music
    What can this thing be that I found?
