Exclamation Option to force Password Login on each start

Please add the option so that we have to manually enter our password on each launch of the software.

I feel that this is a major security issue. I'm actually surprised it isn't in there already. If a computer (laptop trading anyone-or even a desktop) is stolen, someone could trade our account to zero before we even know the thing is gone. Windows login/passwords aren't very secure.

Thanks

Thanks for your thoughful suggestion lookOutBelow - a current workaround would be blanking the pass field and reentering when you come back and relogon.

Agreed. This is a great idea. This is actually the first platform I've used that didn't offer any password protection.

i agree there should be a password on the launch of NT. Has there been any improvements to this problem?

Thanks for the feedback, this is still tracked as active enhancement suggestion in our product management feature lists, which are being worked with as we set the potential course for the next major platform update.

I've just added your votes as well into item #418 for tracking.

Thanks,
