If you want a free third party program....I hear this is the thing to have from many, many people and it has the ability to remove your screensavers.
Created by Antonis Kaladis and Jason Kelley, AutoPatcher XP is an installation package designed to get your Windows XP system up to date quick and easily!
Weighing in at a hefty 254Mb, this update package features a slick looking GUI and and can be customized to install as much or as little as you please.

There are several XP screensavers that I don't care for, but I can't delete them without them just replacing themselves.
Is there a way to get rid of these things permanently?
I'm running XP Pro, btw
