automatic user logoff

I can have several programs open, but XP Pro logs me off
when I don't use them for about 10 minutes and I have to
re-enter my password to get back to the Desktop. If I
roll the mouse over my user name, it indicates that
processes are still running. I heard this was a security
feature, but that I could use regedit to lengthen this
time or turn it off. How do I do this?

Your not logged off, its the screen saver. Right click on the desk top,
select properties, and change the screen saver parameters
