From your description I'd say you're first locking the computer by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del, lock Computer and then unlocking it again by typing in your password.

Lock -> Ctrl+Alt+Del then push enter. The computer is then locked.
 
You do not have to put the password in to LOCK the computer
 
What Admiral said sounds right, it does sound like you are locking and then unlocking without realising it.
