Hello!

I'm wondering if anyone knows how to remove the screen saver option out of XP Pro?

I"m not talking about the logon screen saver that you get when you are at the ctrl-alt-del screen but the one you get when you right click on the desktop and choose "properties".

Basically I don't want anyone to be able to change the default SS at all.

Any suggestions?

Hi Lyle,

You may like to easily configure this by downloading and running the
following automated edit:
