Xp pro auto logoff feature

Comment:

you know how windows xp pro will automatically logoff when you aren't using the computer for x amount of time? then you have to go back into your user id and log back on. is there someway to lengthen the amount of time before this auto logoff takes place? or get rid of it all together? i use this at home and don't even need the bothersome feature!

Right click on desktop > properties > screensaver ... clear the box that reads: on resume, password protect. Today's subliminal thought is: 'Calm down ... it's only ones and zeros.'
