Hi all!
I know that this question was posted other times, but after many and many 
searches and after have tryed every kind of code, I've decide to ask here.

Within my application I need to stop the screensaver if is running, I've 
found some sample but it work only if I start manually a screensaver, if is 
started by system it doesn't work.

For example this simple code :

mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0);
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_RIGHTUP, 0, 0, 0, 0);

work .. but only if Screensaver is started manually.

What's the difference about is Windows to start it ?

Have someone a piece of code that work in any situation ?

Application must run on WindowsXP like on Windows NT.

Any help is appreciated.
Steve
