Logging out
To prevent others from gaining access to
private server directories to which your domain account may have access, you
should log out of all file servers when you are finished using them or whenever
you leave your computer unattended.
To log out of a file server, drag the server icon on your desktop into the
trash.
Shutting down your computer will automatically log you out.
