Is it brought on by perhaps your screensaver options?

[bartrob]

Has this always happenned? Maybe you installed some small app that has this feature on by default?

yeh thought about that as well and have wound back the clock as in used system restore that didnt help
very frustrating as when i am watching a movie it will time out and the login/welcome screen comes on

[Archer]

Do you have tweakui or similar installed?

[TechZ]

I went thru TweakUI Archer, nothing of that sort there.

have all power schemes set to never and it is still happenningEven set to always on, the monitor may be set to turn off.

Also, check the "Prompt for password when computer returns from standby" on the advanced tab.
