Although I haven't tested mLock, I'd be extremely surprised if "reset" meant having to wipe the computer and not just "reboot". Don't blame me though ;)

What exactly does "reset your PC" mean? Reboot?-J-Mac (September 29, 2007, 11:50 PM)

Means doing a 'cold reboot'... done with pressing the reset button on your PC case or pressing the power button for five seconds.

Thank you.  Though I did know what a cold reboot was.  What I could not be certain about was what the site owner meant by the words "...reset your PC.".  When people use non-specific terms like that they might mean something different but not know how to express it clearly, particularly if English is not their first language. 

Better safe than sorry!
