    Have you already placed the order, or is it still only seating in your cart?    If the order has not been submitted and still in the cart, then change the " 1 " in the box to zero, click 'Remove Item" and reorder.  Once an order has been submitted, the you will have completely cancel the order with Dell and place a new order.   You can cancel by posting the request in Customer Care - General (Non-Technical) conference, remember to include your customer and order numbers.

    Have you tried clicking "Remove Item" it's in small print, on the right hand side of the page?

    I 've checked the site and found that on the page "Select Accessories" there is a box at the top of the page, titled "Protect Your Investment" showing a Belkin Gold Surgemaster @ $39.00  that has been prechecked by Dell.
    So, if anyone does not want to purchase this item, then the check must removed.
    A real tricky move by Dell that waits for the unwary.

    Try placing your order now with this in mind.

    Good Luck.

    If you go back into your order, Dell adds it on page 3 I believe.  It's very hard to notice, tiny little box checked.

    It's pretty slippery of Dell to do that IMHO.
