right click your desktop and goto properties and then chose  screensaver (tab) and uncheck the Password
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but:
 - use Mikal613's solution
or
 - just turn off the ScreenSaver.

The locking actually happens when the ssaver is turning off, it's just its password-protection, but better than in Win 9x.

I tried the screen saver settings, but still locks in and i need to unlock it, it seems related to power saving somehow !!
