When people log out, they want to log out and leave, not hang around and watch the machine and make sure that it actually decides to go back to the login screen after so-many seconds resetting and reloading. In a secure environment, that could easily lead to an unlocked, logged-in terminal being left running after someone thinks that he logged out but apparently didn't. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
