FindWindow workstation locked

jz
Does FindWindow work if the workstation the pgm is running on is locked?

I have a crazy little application (vb .exe) that wakes up every 5 seconds
and looks for a NT Authentication box that is popped when a particular web
site is hit thru the browser. If the window is found it populates the
credentials via sendkeys.
Program works great until my machine is in lock mode. Appears it can't find
the window when the computer is locked.
