I have a screeensaver that I would like to permanently
remove from my system. I am using Windows XP PRO.
Please help. How do I remove it ?
 
If you know, or can figure out, the name of the screensaver, delete it from
Windows Explorer. (Switch to another screensaver first.)

The included screen savers are protected files. Open Windows Explorer and
go to C:\Windows\System32\dllcache. Locate the screen saver in question and
delete the file. Then delete the same file from Windows\System32. You'll
be prompted by Windows to replace the file, tell it no.
 
You may need to remove it using Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs too.
