    Hi.Im using Windows XP.
    If I use a screen saver on pc and I want to "password protect" it,is this
    the password that I use when I log on to Windows??

    No. If you password protect a screensaver it does not need to have the same
    password you use to logon to windows. If your aim is to 'lock' your PC, just
    press the Ctrl+Alt+Delete and click 'Lock Computer'. The password needed to
    unlock the PC is the same as your logon password.
