User time-out

Can someone tell me how I can access the section in XP to see how long before
the system signs me out as a user automatically and perhaps how I can
increase the time limits on user time-outs.

Thank you,

If this is a standalone machine (or in a Workgroup and not a domain), go
to the Display applet in Control Panel and click on the Screensaver
tab. You'll find the options there. If this is a workstation on a
domain, you'll need to talk to your IT Dept. about this.

It seems to be in the Screen Saver section of the Display Properties.
