PW-protect screensave doesnt work

Hey,
It doesn't work for me to set on password protection after the screensaver begins.
I've searched the web and tried those methods to set it from "0" to "1", but pretty useless, because it's definitely shown to be checked off, but it just doesn't perform the job.

If you google screensaver protect you will find plenty of websites that offer protection.

Have you set a password for your normal User Account logon ??
Windows HELP says this-- Your screen saver password is the same as your logon password. If you do not use a password to log on, you cannot set a screen saver password.
Also I wish to say that Screensaver password protection DOES NOT happen right after Screensaver starts. There is some sort of delaying action that takes place.
