Steven is absolutely right..
Anyone who leaves themselves logged in to an unattended workstation has no
defence if someone else uses that workstation to violate the organisation's
Legitimate Use rules.
It is hard to explain pornography in My Documents when your IT department
provides you with a unique user name and secure password. You can lose not
just your job but your whole career from such cases.

Robert told you how to make the changes to disable it but you may want to
reconsider in that it is a good security practice to have a computer lock
after a certain period of inactivity and even required in some environments
such as those that need to comply with HIPPA regulations.
Instead you may want to review the idle period that manages when the
computer locks and change that to a more tolerable time if it is too short
for your environment and you are willing to take the risk of such. You may
also want to modify the user configuration [screen saver lock] Group Policy
so that it applies or does not apply to certain domain users as the case may
be via what users are within the scope of management of the Group Policy
that applies the setting..
