utility to simulate keyboard activity Tuesday, October 2, 2007 at 7:16 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Fishwife (3 messages posted) Hello - I'm bedeviled by a well-meant but overkill (in my situation) security feature of our corporate LAN. More than 10 minutes or so with no input from the keyboard or mouse causes the user to be locked out, requiring a contol-alt-delete and password re-entry to resume working. I can't disable this feature directly or remember to just hit the spacebar every so often while doing other things. So every phone call or visitor to the office means logging back in. Does anyone here know of a utility that will run in the background, automatically sending a simulated keystroke at some chosen interval to give this network nanny what it needs?
