Yes, as well as the Mac Combo of FN-Ctrl-Alt-Del   that sends the command to 
the VM in Fusion and not the VM running in the Citrix Session inside of the 
Fusion VM.

I think I need some kind of keystroke app that keeps the Screensaver from 
engaging in the first place.   It is an interesting problem and for nearly 20 
years this group has a habit of beating upon interesting problems.
