I am wondering why when I go into the standby mode and then click any button to come back to my desktop my logon screen appears and I do not want this to happen. How can I change this so it comes back to the desktop. Thanks, Gary

Hi I'm going to say this before somebody responds and that is when I normally turn my system on I don't have the logon screen just the desktop comes up and that is how I like it. I don't have any password to put in so I don't want the logon screen appearing like it now does after it comes back from the standby mode.
