   Changing Acct in XP   
   23 Jun 15 22:38:00   
   
   Lots of times when I change accounts on this XP box from Limited User   
   to Admin, when I go back to the Limited acct some settings will be   
   changed even though I hadn't opened Control Panel to change something   
   while I was in the Admin acct.   
      
   When I have left the room for a bit, I want to see my screen the same   
   as when I return.   
      
   Today "IT" decided to start using the Screen Saver to blank the screen.   
      
   When I move the mouse a little the Desktop appears without first asking   
   for a Password to be entered before seeing the Desktop.   
      
   And here I told Daryl Stout recently in some echo, that I don't use a   
   Screen Saver.   
      
   I guess the AMD 3800+ CPU is smarter than me, and does what it wants.   
      
   I will look some more after writing this message to look for any   
   changes to the settings that I overlooked while scratching my head   
   today wondering what happened to MY settings.
