Please forgive....I'm not home and none of the off-topic headers in my web
mail actually have the off-topic e-addy.


I need to have a secure login so I have a password attached to my
administrator account which I use all the time.  [and then I have a guest
account for customers]

Part of the time when not in use, it reverts to my normal login in screen
which is fine.  Other times, it goes someplace I can't get out of that only
says to "click your username to login" but nothing shows except the windows
logo on the screen, no login icons.  I can't even alt+F4 and make it do
anything.

Several times now I've just rebooted to make it go away and come back to
where I could do something.

I know to go change the amount of time it waits before sliding off into
oblivion, but how do I get it back from going someplace I don't know where
is? (yes, I do know how to use English usually)  Might this have something
to do with sleep settings or hibernate settings? [I bought it used and
didn't set those...don't know anything about them and there's not a wakeup
key on my keyboard even if it is asleep.]

Give me a clue, please.
