Barbara,
What happens if you use a different screen saver? If you install a =
non-Microsoft saver (from any cover disk, for instance) and then set the =
password option for that screen saver, the password you set should be =
entirely separate from the original screen saver. That should tide you =
over until you can find someone clever who knows how to break the =
password option on the original screen saver.
Good luck.
