Have found this which might help
mrtstub.exe in General Security Discussion

If you think someone uses your laptop without your permission why not protect it with a password?
Or CCTV

Hello Jagjr, welcome to Seven Forums!



The suggestion by Mitchell is a good one; here's a tutorial on that subject, have a look at it at the link below; then have a look at the second tutorial as a safety precaution.

My computer has a 24 AlphaNumeric Password with capitals.
I locked my computer this morning and found it unlocked when i came back. No one knows my password.

Are there activity logs?

Yes. Right click on the my computer icon, select manage, go to event viewer -> windows logs -> security. Look for logons attempted with explicit credentials.

Thanks mate.

However, unless you've already enabled audit logging for login failures, you won't know if there were multiple attempts. To enable audits for logins:

start -> gpedit.msc
computer configuration -> windows settings -> local policies -> audit policy
Double click on audit logon events, enable failure (and also success, if you want)

Log off, enter a bad password, then a good password, and check your security logs. You'll see the failure (and success, if you enabled that in your audit log).
