Does anyone know where to find the settings to turn off the automatic log off feature? I just realized I have this problem (well,for me anyway ;) ) where if I leave this machine alone for a period of time, it logs me off.

Go to desktop properties, click on 'screen saver', then 'setting', the section supposes have a option to let you choose whether you want to log your account off automatically after few minutes or disable this service.

Thanks chrisling,
I checked out "screen saver" settings and I do not have any option of "Auto log off" but I did turn off "Standby" settings and turned off screen saver. I will see what that does.
