title: How do I turn off the windows screen saver if it is running using C#?
body: <p>Ok, so I found some <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/ScreenSaverControl.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">code</a> to check if a screensaver is running and kill it if I want to. This doesn't seem to work on Windows 7 PCs. Does anyone know how this code can be modified, or provide new code to accomplish this? </p>
  
  <p>My application is designed to run in the background until a particular event occurs, and then create and display a full screen notification. This needs to be displayed even if a screen saver is currently up.</p>
