 I would like to set up a screensaver password, but when
I go to control panel, then display, then screensaver,
there is no option to set a screensaver password. The
only option is "on resume, display welcome screen". I'd
really like to password the computer using the
screensaver....need some help!!! I used to use Windows
98, and that had the option to set a password. Is this
not available in Win XP?
