Hello Jonathan,

Actually I am using the standard Windows XP screen saver...
In addition, the screen saver is set to 10 minutes whereas the away option
is set to 5 minutes. If it is because of the screen saver, does it means that
it nevers go away or does it go back to online after the 10 minutes when the
screen saver is activated?
