Monitor on "lock mode" when I try to change my screen

I have a 32 inch lcd screen with which the screen can be placed on split screen to watch tv on one side and the computer screen on the other.  My children pressed a button somewhere and now when I attempt to move back to full screen, either tv or computer a picture of a padlock appears.  None of the buttons on the front of the screen will work, all bring up the picture of the padlock.  If anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears.

1. Click on "Start" at the bottom left of the screen.
2. Choose "Settings"|
3. Choose "Control Panel"
4. Double click on the "Display" menu option.
5. Click on the "Settings" tab on the display dialog box.
6. Move the resolution slider to a different screen size (e.g. 800x600, 1024x768).
7. Hit the "Apply" button and select "Yes" that you want to use these new settings.
8. Change the resolution back to your preferred setting. Hit "Apply" and "Yes" again.
9. The icon should now be gone for good!

If this does not fix it, you could try holding down the menu button for 20 seconds to unlock it and access the "OSD Lock" sub-menu
