Unable to change Screen Saver

ia-hawk-fan07

I have safguard easy 5.50.1.17 and Windows 7 64 bit on Lenovo T510 laptops. We have discovered that we can no longer changed the screensaver. Any changes we make are changed back as soon as we are done. While we are not sure if this is being caused by Sophos we thought we would ask and see if anyone else has experienced this problem.

Thanks!

    My best guess at this is, that in Windows 7 the "secure" screensaver is the blank one. So when you compter goes to screensaver and you have Sophos encryption installed you can not change it. Mainly because you need the secure one to log back in to Windows. I am hoping someone here on the forums or someone from Sophos might confirm or deny this.

    Thanks!
