Default Screen Saver Interupting Simulation

I know that there is alot of info in this newsgroup on prevent screen savers
from popping up but I can't seem to find an answer that works for me.

My ability to control my screensaver is controlled by my IT group. I cannot
turn it off or adjust it. Secondly, when it does come on, upon moving the
mouse, I have to enter my login password.

I have a simulation which gets interupted by my screen saver. I was
attempting to get around by moving the cursor of the mouse every 1000
iterations or so via VBA. This seems to be preventing the screensaver from
coming up. BUT, the login-in dialogue still pops up. I assumed that if I
prevented the screen saver from coming up that I would never have to worry
about the login. They must be two separate issues

How do I get around from having to login-in to the computer?

Thanks

EM
