LogOut Screen Saver

Hi all,

Is anyone out there willing to show me how to make or make a screen saver for me that will:
when the screen saver activates it will display (so it looks decent):
"You have been idle for X (whatever screensaver activation time is) minutes. You will automatically be logged in: "
then have a countdown timer starting at 5 minutes.
Anything you did not save will be lost. Hit any key or move the mouse to continue."
Then once the counter gets to zero, a forced logout will be done, one way would be killing the loginwindow.app


I know this is possible. but I do not have enough knowledge of cocoa to do this. I usually use applescript studio to write all my programs.

If you are willing to help with this, get back to me A.S.A.P. Thanks in advance.

*Anything you have not saved will be lost if you do not continue.
