Network screen saver during powerpoint

[Steve Chalender]

Our network is set that the user cannot disable the 15 minute
screensaver/sign-in screen even when not connected to the net. Therefore the
screensaver comes on and requires sign-in if you pause on a powerpoint slide
for over 15 minutes without moving the mouse. Does anyone have a similar
problem and a solution that soes not include "wiggle the mouse" or "have the
administrator change the setting"? Neither one is a workable solution.

Steve,

maybe their is a small piece of software that can simulate the moving of the
mouse, or a key press, to stop the screensaver from activating. but if the
admins will not let you disable the screensaver, i cannot imagine them
letting you install something

plus it would probably get in the way of your normal presentation.
