Have a look at the Systemsettings -> Power management where you can
change the behavior. The first occurrence is to change the timeout,
and in the advanced settings tab you can disable the screen lock.
Assuming you use KDE 4.x, of course, unfortunately you didn't tell
which exact KDE release you were using.

FWIW: this mailing list is meant for people who write documentation,
if you are looking for support I suggest you either use the support
mailing list at kde at kde.org or use our forums at http://forum.kde.org
