Windows 7 sleep issue vlc 2.0.1/itunes

[issicus]

I am trying to figure out how to make my computer sleep when itunes or vlc are the active application but not playing anything. I got sleep# from sourceforge and that seems to be working for vlc.

is there some way to override all programs ability to stop the computer from sleeping?

I just tested it with both of them running and my computer went to sleep just fine.
