is there a way to prevent the screensaver from starting whenever you run a
fullscreen program like a video player?

it is very annoying to have to move the mouse whenever the screensaver turns
on.

I run XP Pro
 
Right click on the Desktop, select Properties, from the ScreenSaver tab
select "NONE" as your screensaver option.

by the way, my media player program does not have an option to prevent
screensavers.
Click to expand...

Which player would that be?

WMP since 7.1 has had this option...

tools>>options>>player>>"allow screen saver during playback"

Just use WMP instead of whatever you're currently using for
that specific instance when you need the capability.
