Windows Screensaver

 REGEDIT4
 BLANK LINE GOES HERE
 [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop]
 "ScreenSaveActive"="1"
 "Scrnsave.exe"="c:\winnt\system32\ssmaze.scr"
 "ScreenSaveTimeOut"="600"
 BLANK LINE GOES HERE

If you implement this on a server, use the blank screen saver (scrnsaver.scr) or you will have potential problems with memory leaks and you will certainly have unnecessary cycles going to the screen saver.

Do not implement screen saver passwords since it is not supported.

Disable Windows XP User Tracking

Disable User Tracking

 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer] "NoInstrumentation"=dword:00000001

The user tracking system built into Windows XP is useless to 99 Percent of users (there are very few uses for the information collected other than for a very nosy system admin), and it uses up precious resources to boot, so it makes sense to disable this "feature" of Windows XP. To do so, browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer and find the DWORD "NoInstrumentation". You may need to create this key if it is not there. The default setting is 0, but setting it to 1 will disable most of the user tracking features of the system.
