If you don't leave your computer open for very long, I'd say just forego getting a screen saver. Since you won't really enjoy seeing it much, it would be pointless to use up space on your hard drive for a screen saver.

Usually the 'screen-saver'. If a TV or computer screen is left on with the same image, it can 'burn' the image onto the screen - creating 'ghosting'. A screen-saver allows your computer to stay on - while protecting the screen's pixels.

How can you keep your Computer screen from going back to screen saver without constantly moving the mouse?

It sounds like you have a short time delay for when the screen saver kicks-in. Change the time delay the computer sets between your last activity and starting the screen-saver. In windows 7 - right-click anywhere on your screen (so long as your mouse-pointer is not over an icon) and select personalize. In the dialogue box that appears, left-click on the screen saver icon (bottom-right of the box). You should see the word wait a small box next to it. The number in the box is the length of time the computer waits to start the screen-saver. Use the up and down buttons to change the time interval to a more suitable period. Remember to click apply.
