But do we really have Windows applications that mess with the timeouts? Unless we know of many applications that really do stupid things, we should let them modify the screensaver timeouts. Otherwise it is just paranoia. And if we don't trust Windows applications we should not let them run in the first place. They are many things worse than changing the screensaver settings that they could do: just imagine all you can do with an evil API like DeleteFile, or CreateWindow.
I tend to agree with all the words above and want to add my voice to support it.
