I set a screen saver password and set it to start for 1 minuite. Then, I added the screensaver to the startup menu so that when the computer boots up, it logs in then password protects the computer via screen saver. Now, heres the problem. The screen saver does not start automatically like it should AFTER i put the screen saver in the startup menu after I unlock it using the password.
How do I set the screensaver to start automatically even if add it in the startup menu?

I don't have a 95 machine set up right now but isn't there a 'screen saver' tab in display properties as with 98? If so you can password protect it that way and don't need to do anything with the start menu.
Or is this some third party software? If so, what?
