I an using mint 13 cinnamon. After a period of time the screen goes blank. When i move the mouse a box pops up asking me for my password. How can I disable this. Also how can I adjust the timing when it does this.

Start "Brightness and Lock" from the menu, or find it in System Tools > System Settings. You can configure it there IIRC.
