Anyone out there know if they make a screensaver, where instead of using a password to get back to your desktop, you can define a certain pixel area of a photo and click on it to go back to your desktop?

Why would you want that? It would just take one time of someone looking over your shoulder to break the security. And it wouldn't be much of a screensaver if it just displayed a static image that never moved or anything.

Because it interests me? No one is usually in my study looking over my shoulder. The point was security, rather than a screen saver mostly.

The only purpose served by a screen saver these days with LCD monitors is entertaiunment. I believe you can tie it to a fingerprint reader if that is your bent.

without something like bitlocker or other encryption windows screensaver is easily defeated.
