It is a screen saver! On a Windows machine, you can add a security 
feature to the screen saver - by requiring that the user log back in 
each time the screen saver pops up to get out of the screen saver. 
The setting is in on the screen saver Control Panel. You check "on 
resume, display logon screen" It is a pain in the ass option if you 
work alone - need to log in every time you leave your machine, but is 
a good idea if you share a work space. Prevents other people from 
using your machine. Some businesses require it. Also a good idea for 
a home user if you do not want your spouse/kids reading your email or 
messing with your machine.
