Screensaver Password Protect Feature Not Working!

[lapetite_66]

Hi:

I don't know what's going on or if I accidently did something wrong but when I went to my windows "Display" option and attempted to use my screensaver with the password protect feature it doesn't seem to be working. Would a virus prevent this from working??? How can I fix this?

You have to tick the box marked "user password on resume" and then click "apply".

It should then ask for a password when trying to get into windows after the screen saver is running.

If it isn't, do you have a password set during power up/logon? If you have the logon password bypassed or disabled, then that also applies to the screensaver.
