Yeah, I know this shouldn't be here, but I'll move it once I get a good answer.
By default, Windows XP's screensaver tab has an checkbox option "On resume, display Welcome Screen". Well, about 4-5 days ago, I did a registry hack according to Ad-Aware, and now the checkbox on the screensaver tab is "On resume, password protect". If I didn't have my kids sharing my computer, this would be a non-issue, however sine we share it (and I leave my computer on 24/7), neither can log on when I'm gone if they try after the screen saver has kicked in, because when they move the mouse, touch a key, etc. to get out of the screensaver it prompts them for a password with my user name. The old way, when they got moved the mouse, etc., it would give them the welcome screen and they could simply enter their password in their displayed name.
I've Googled my ass off for the last hour, and nothing gives me a solution (there's 9,234 posts about "gee, how do I set a password for my screensaver" and the answer always is "check the 'On resume, display Welcome Screen' checkbox". There's once site when someone had the exact same problem as me, but the site wants me to sign up and pay $9.95 for the answer...f*ck that.
So, does anyone know how I can change the checkbox on the screensaver tab back to "On resume, display Welcome Screen"?
