    Is there a new win32 virus...? I keep getting logged off.

    Not another winblast eh? Every time my screensaver goes on, windows logs me off. Thats pretty much all there is to it, but yeah - it sucks.

    Solution, please?

    a friend of mine gets logged off whenever he signs in. Sounds like the same kind of thing.

    That could be what it's supposed to do, there is an option for that to happen. Play around with your security settings and screen saver settings.

    do you have password protection on via screensaver? it's in the screensaver properties. you can turn that off.

    Booya, I didnt realize that password protection meant logoff. Good. Thank you gerbo and the rest of you.

    It doesn't go to logoff - it should only lock the computer.
    I really enjoy forgetting. When I first come to a place, I notice all the little details. I notice the way the sky looks. The color of white paper. The way people walk. Doorknobs. Everything. Then I get used to the place and I don't notice those things anymore. So only by forgetting can I see the place again as it really is.
