device lock unlocks with keyboard open

[elmorage]

I am sure this has been asked and answered but I couldnt find anything by searching. I have had the touch pro for about a week and I love everything about it except the device lock function. Everytime the keyboard slides open it unlocks the keys which kind of defeats the purpose of the lock in the first place. I know I can use the password instead but it is clunky and ugly so I am looking for a better solution.

I remember reading about a fix for this issue but I do not have the skill or the bravery to download and use a registry editor. Does anyone have a prepackaged fix that handles this? Like the cleanup package in the sticky thread?
