Logging off

When I walk away from my computer, after a few minutes XP
automatically closes my user account and takes me back to
the user logon screen. This appears to be XP and not my
power settings as everything is set to stay running.

What do I need to change so that my session stays active
after extended absence?

Hi,

Two settings to check:

Control Panel/Display/Screensaver tab, uncheck the option "On resume, dispay
welcome screen".
Control Panel/Power Options/Advanced, uncheck "prompt for password...."
