Whenever I walk away from my computer and come back after a few minutes or
hours I get the computer is locked screen. How do I disable this function? I
unchecked prompt for password under Hibernation and all settings are set to
never.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, does it make a difference if I am attached to a domain?

Thanks again for your help.

Your IS/IT Dept. sets it up that way for security reasons. You probably
can't change it but if you do you could be reprimanded or fired. Is it
worth it?

I'm in the IT dept. and I need to disable this feature for the owner of the
business.

Any ideas.
