RE: Screensaver Mode

If the screensaver is started in "full screen" non-windowed mode then you can't get to the start bar. The only way to do so (as far as I know) is to press the "F" key and change the screensaver to windowed mode.

If the screensaver were to start in non-windowed mode immediately then the .bat file I posted about earlier kicks in a lock of the desktop the moment the screensaver stops running. It is then essentially the same thing as having locked the desktop at the start. If you try the technique with any other screensaver you'll see that you can't get to the destop again without entering your password.

I think the only reason it doesn't work with the Marine Aquarium screensaver is because it's possible to switch to windowed mode.

Have you attempted getting to your start bar when the screensaver is set to non-windowed mode? You shouldn't be able to...
Sincerely,
