Right click on the desktop
Select Personalize
Select Screensaver (Icon in the lower right corner)

There's a check box for "On resume, display logon screen".

If that box is checked it will require you to logon from the screen
saver the way you're describing.

a couple of weeks ago my screen saver got stuck - took some banging
on keys
to get it to go away  - so
I turned it off... NOW what is happening, which isn't really a
problem but
I'd like to know what I could have done to cause it , is that if I'm
AFK for
as short a time as 20 minutes or so I have to re-login.  This is true
even
if I am off line.
PRior to this, The login holds until I shut down the computer.

Perhaps it is a good thing  but I'd like to knwo how to control it or
if it
is something the powers that be insist that I do.
