I have to apologize. I don't know what the "user quick switch" is.

             I'm using VNC with XP too but I don't have this problem.  What screen 
saver are you using?  I'm using the "3D flower" and monitor is going into sleep mode, 
but still I have no problem.

             Have you, by chance, enabled the "user quick switch"?
