Did you purchase your laptop new from a retailer or was it a used laptop when you purchased it?
Are you using only screen savers that were already installed in your laptop before it shipped new or did you (or someone) download some screen savers from the Internet?
(One must be very cautious when downloading screen savers from the Internet. Many sites that offer "screen savers" are classified as dangerous according to McAfee's SiteAdvisor.)
EDIT: If you are using screen savers that were not already installed in the laptop when it was new, then I suggest you follow the instructions for using online malware scanners linked here to try to determine whether malware might be affecting your computer's behavior or not.
If any malware is detected, then take careful detailed notes about what malware is found, which application(s) found it, and what actions are performed (if any). That information will be helpful for further steps you should take if malware is found.
