Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to quickly toggle on/off requiring a password when the computer awakes from sleep?

The best solution I could think of is a widget, but I haven't found any.

The reason I want this is for when certain applications wake my Macbook from sleep they need to run, but if I'm not around to enter the password then it will just go back to sleep. Then there are other times when I just want it password protected.

Any ideas, thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a solution, I just enabled fast user switching and that works fine for me. A mod can delete this topic or lock it if they want.
