Hello everyone!

Thanks for any assistance you provide :)

my question is as follows...

When i browse to HKEY_USERS i get the listings

.DEFAULT
S-1-5-18
S-1-5-19
S-1-5-19_CLASSES
S-1-5-20
S-1-5-20_CLASSES
S-1-5-21-842925246-706699826-830
ECT. ECT.

so, what i'm trying to do is simply change the change interval on the
ssmypics.scr to less than the windows allowed 6 seconds. I found the entry
i need to hit, HKEY_USERS/S-1-5-21-842925246-706699826-830/control
panel/screen saver.slideshow.

what i'm wondering is why do i see S-1-5-19 and the like? what are they
dignifying or telling me? i had to manually search all the sections to find
the screen saver.slideshow.

I'm guessing those are 'users' on my computer? and one would think the
.DEFAULT would be the setting to change for all users new / old on the
machine? But i don't see the screen saver.slide show in there... so i'm
confused.

Also, just for reference, if you change the timing interval of the slide
show, and allow the "transisions' you are going to be forced back to the 6
second default :(

thanks for clarity!
