Q: Help: How to lock the Macbook internal keyboard

I would like to lock out the keyboard, for example when I'm cleaning it.

 

In System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Keyboard & Text Input

there is a shortcut ^F1 Turn keyboard access on or off

 

When I press fn+control+F1 nothing seems to happen and the keyboard still seems to be active.

I tried also changing the option below to the 2nd one: All Controls

 

◎ Text boxes and lists only

◉  All controls

 

But this did not help either.

 

Any ideas how to make this shortcut lock out the keyboard?

 

Thank you.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7)
