Screentime Screensaver Engine?

Hi Guys, I've searched, but I can't find the answer to this. Please can you help?

I've just had a pop up from Avast saying that Screentime Screensaver Engine is trying to access the internet. I've never heard of this before. Can anyone tell me what it is, how it got on my computer and most importantly, is it spyware (or anything I need to worry about)?

Thanks a lot! ;)

    It may be dodgy but you may also have installed a Screentime screen saver unintentionally - they're very crafty!
    Take a look at the uninstall info here

    Thanks bluboy,

    Screentime is not in listed in my add/remove programs. I'm using Windows XP and uninstall manually appears to be only for Windows 98 or NT.

    Please can someone advise?
