        OK, I see.  When you said "logon", I thought you've got a logon dialog to 
input your password, so I thought your screensaver has password protection.  I indeed 
see this "Windows XP" now, but I don't get what you meant by "... toggle button ...".  
This screensaver in my WinXP has no option (setting).

        Normally, even VNC3 is unable to switch to other screen.  A VNC is "attached" 
to a display, whether it is in console or in TS session.  But when you talked about 
"new desktop", I wonder if you're using "Remote desktop" functionality in WinXP.  This 
is somehow incompatible to VNC because this technology uses "virtual" displays that 
VNC can't capture.

        So, your problem is solved?  Glad to hear so.
