To see if you have SP2 right click on "My Computer" icon and click on "Genersl" tab (if not already selected). Your operating system version including any SP numbers should be shown there. -- ---------------- Stubbo of Oz ---------------- |

So it sounds like a recent install of SP2 can't be the cause of your problem. To stop having to sign back in after your screensaver activates, go to Control Panel Display Screen Saver tab and remove the tick from "On resume, password protect". |

Right click a blank spot on the desktop and choose Properties.
Under Screen Saver you can choose whether or not to display the Welcome Screen when coming back from screen saver. "kirsty" wrote in message ...
