    Goto start on your task bar,then goto your control panel, then goto your "add remove program", and look for the program you don't want...then uninstall it.

    all screen savers basically sux. none are worth the system resources the pull,even if it's 56k it still sux your system. Just use your os screen savers. right click your desk top and goto properties,then goto screen savers and change it to what ever you want,like my pictures for example.

    Any site that gives you free screensavers will have spyware on it (that's what the address bar you're talking about is.) Try getting screensavers from the sources that MAKE them. E.g. want a SpongeBob screensaver, go to Nickelodeon's website, want a Tom Cruise screensaver, go to the Mission Impossible website.

    Do a System Restore...

    Click on Start....Control Panel....Perfomance and Maintainence....up on the left hand side...it says *See Also*.......there it says System Restore....I'm sure theres another way to find it...but thats how I do it....

    Restore your system back to the day before you downloaded the screensavers to get rid of what you downloaded.

    I create my own.....thats the only way I know to trust what I'm getting :)

    Good luck...
