A while back I thought it would be awesome to throw a cool (yet cliche) matrix themed screensaver as my wallpaper. I believe the program I used was Onyx. After a month of having the matrix on my wallpaper, I decided to get rid of it. I opened up the program (again, I believe it's Onyx) and clicked "Stop." It did and I was happy. I went ahead and deleted the screensaver "Red Pill" (the one I was using as wallpaper) and deleted the program. Now, whenever I boot into Mac OSX the matrix screensaver is still displayed as my wallpaper. I have to go to "Change Screensaver" and click the options of this screensaver that I thought I deleted and then click reset. It then shuts off and all is good until I boot up again. I've done in-depth searches on my hard drive for "Red Pill" and anything that might remotely be similiar, but have found nothing. It's not a critical issue, just annoying. Any advice on how to shut this thing off permanently would be awesome. Thanks.

Check your Startup Items in the Accounts PreferencePane and see if it's there.

Look in these places and if it's there, drag to trash;

System/Library/ScreenSavers

Library/ScreenSavers

User/Library/ScreenSavers

Thanks alot. At first I didn't think it was in there. I had already deleted a "Red Pill" screensaver from another location. For one reason or another (user error most likely haha) it's name was changed to "EdPill." Not sure how I managed that. I must have passed over it though in my search for a file name beginning with "R." Again, thanks for the help though.
