Hey, no need to post the same message 3 times!
I'm not aware of anything that will do that. The only protection (I
think)
you can get is to set a password in the security preference. At least,
that's what NOS 2.0 has, but I don't remember if NOS 1.x Newtons had
this
feature as well. If you do, you can select how often you will be
prompted
for the password, like everytime you turn your Newton on, or once a day,
etc.
