PC does not see Windower / FFXI as being active?

Ever since I DL'd and started using Windower, while I'm mid FFXI, my monitor will sleep on it's sleep setting (currently 15 mins), it never did this prior to getting windower.  So for some reason, when I launch FFXI through windower - it's not seeing me as sitting here actually using the PC? Any idea why that might be?  Thanks!  Shaking the mouse every 15 mins (I use a controller) is getting annoying haha.  (I know I can just remove the Sleep setting or extend it, but I enjoy the 15 min for other situations.)

Thanks for any input!

Are you playing Fullscreen?

OS?

Yeah it's full screen - windows 7

This is nothing new. FFXI itself has never suppressed sleep or the screen saver, and neither has Windower. Windows doesn't listen to controller input when resetting the idle timer. Chances are you had something else running in the background that suppressed these (Windows Media Player, maybe?), or perhaps before now you've always typed something before the 15 minute mark came up, so you never noticed. It's something we can add relatively easy, though, so I would suggest submitting a feature request on our issue tracker.
