computer locks up

I don't know if that's the correct name for it, but if I'm away from the computer for a while (half hour,perhaps)it goes into wallpaper mode and I can't even shut down. There are no icons, just the wallpaper. Sometimes the "Unlock Computer" comes on, but I cannot do anything with that. It says "This computer is in use and has been locked. Only XXXXXXXXXXX or an administrator can unlock this computer.

I used to just be able to hit OK at the bottom and it did whatever it was to do. I don't know if this has anything to do with the locking up, but I have to shut down manually and start up again to use the computer. I need help...again!
