Screensaver cycles, does not let me log back in

I am running XP pro with Classic logon.
Screensaver (no matter which one) is password protected.

When the screensaver is activated it does not let me log back into Windows
- the screensaver disappears, it tries to display the logon window but
jumps back into screensaver almost instantly. Whend I press ESC or
CTRL-ALT-DEL several times, the logon Window appears for maybe a half
second and if I am really fast I can type in the password and unlock the
system.

Screensaver without password works fine, also when I first maually lock
Windows and then the screensaver (not password protected) activates,
everything works.

I have just installed SP2, and I did not have this problem before.

Any help much appreciated.

Issue resolved.
It was a problem with "Hot Corners" - upgrade to v2.21 fixed the problem.
