Well, if you don't have the settings manager option for it (which
is another problem that you need to solve, but that's another
thread), then you can edit your xinitrc script.
In /home/$USER/.config/xfce4/xinitrc, you'll find these lines:
# Launch xscreensaver (if available), but only as non-root user
test $UID -gt 0 -a -z "$VNCSESSION" && xscreensaver -no-splash &
Comment them out and xscreensaver will no longer start for you.
If that file doesn't exist, then copy the system default from
/etc/X11/xdg/xfce4 and place it in /home/$USER/.config/xfce4,
then edit the copy in your home directory. Of course, you could
edit the system-wide default, but it will get replaced on upgrade.
