I've created an application that hosts an internet explorer control that starts at the netflix.com. while the application is running, it prevents the computer (windows only, xp, vista, & win7) from going into the screen saver or power saving mode (Monitor off only, not sleep).
Check it out: http://netflix.timbot.net/Publish.htm
let me know what you think or if you have any issues, thanks!
this is to solve the problem with silverlight not being able to do the same thing. hopefully when silverlight 3 comes out this app will be obsolete.

I installed this and it permanently disabled my sleep mode. I did not want to do this at all. How do I uninstall this program (i.e. remove all of it)?
Very annoyed user.
