    I recently went back to Comodo 3.0 and ever since my screen savers don't start on there own. Yes it is checked off allow in firewall and D+. Well I mean they are trusted in the firewall tab and trusted in the D+ tab. The screen savers all do previews with no problems but never seem to start on there own. I remember reading about this somewhere. Anyone run across this?

    Maybe you need to allow winlogon.exe to launch the screensaver

    You still need to allow winlogon.exe as a parent for the screensaver. The previews are launched by rundll32.exe, but winlogon calls the screensaver when the pc is idle.
