Screen saver password

Users questions: Figure I've set a password, but after the startup screen does not require a password to protect, how is this going on? I start with the password, not the kind of automatically, why I do not enter the password after setting it? I was under the 2000
Experts answer:WindowsXP secret if you want to set Code, optional in the "In the recovery password protect" check box, and then "Control Panel" in the "User Account" window, set the password. Set the password later, when the screen saver starts running, press any key or move a mouse, the screen will display a dialog box that prompts the user type the password. Only Type the correct password in order to cancel the screen saver is running, otherwise it will always show the contents of the screen saver.
