OK, I found out what that is.  It's a screen saver...   however, it's
locking up the system.  I was going to shut the screen savers down, but
can't.  As soon as I go there, it's at the "Constructing Molecules" and
locks up the system again.

Does anyone have a detailed (for the inexperienced) way in which I can
shut down the screen saver without going to the screen saver area?

I'm not sure why it freezes my system, but it's got to stop as I have to
leave it at times and I don't want to reboot.

Thanks,
