Ok. So if I understand you correctly, I execute a *.scr. Now, how do I quit
 the screensaver?

I must be a little more clear than in my first post. The pc in question is a
tablet-stlye pc. I'd prefer to not have physical contact with the device.
Instead, I'd like to stop the screensaver with my voice, i.e. by announcing
"Stop Screensaver". How might this be done? Voice enables software running,
check. But how to quit the screensaver with a voice command.

Thanks,

AJ
