I've created a custom screensaver that works fine when users are logged in and have no activity for x amount of time. I would like this screensaver to be utilized when no one is logged in as well such as instances when there is a reboot. I applied screensaver registry settings to HKEY_USER\.DEFAULT and now have screensaver attempting to launch but I get the error message below. This screensaver load URLs and displays them which I suspect is causing the issue but the odd part is that this works fine for sessions where users are logged in. I've searched this issue out and tried different varieties of <system.net>
<defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="true" />
</system.net> settings to no avail. There is something about the .DEFAULT user that is not allowing screensaver to work like it does for actual users. Any help towards a solution will earn you a cold beverage next time I'm in your town. :)
