I have a WinXP Home computer that authomatically logs off to the blue
logon screen after a period of inactivity yet "Never" is selected in all
the Power Scheme Options. How can I remove this behaviour please?

Hi,

Two settings:

Control Panel/Display properties/Screensaver tab, uncheck the option "On
resume, password protect".
Control Panel/Power Options/Advanced tab, uncheck "prompt for password when
computer resumes from standby".
