I am having problems enabling a screensaver password in XP. When I select the option under display settings, it has no effect.

I think the reason it doesn't work is because I have XP set up for a single user, so I don't need a password to log in to windows. Right clicking on the password option in display settings and choosing "what's this?" tells you that it uses the login password as the screensaver password.

All I could find was the typical Microsoft story: it's not a bug! it's a FEATURE!.

I certainly don't want to be bothered with a useless login password just to enable a screensaver password. Anyone know a way around this?
