Screensavers

Dave_the_quack · 11-09-2006, 06:13 PM

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering if you guys know of a good screensaver site - we've just received some new PC's at work and as such 'the girls' would like me to set up backgrounds and screensavers for them.

I can do this, and have had a look around, but I don't want to deal with the advertising crap that you also seem to have to inevitably download at the same time as the selected screensaver.

Can anyone recommend a good, reliable and advert-downloads-free site?

I take it you dont want my choice of screensavers, which include boobs ?

Seriously, aquarium screensavers are kinda cool, see for yourself...

Trying to impress the ladies eh Dave?

What on earth do you hope to achieve with that?

Dave_the_quack · 11-10-2006, 02:49 AM

LMAO. Here I am trying to have a serious thread for once, and you hobo's had to come and spoil it! At least Johnny put in the aquarium one, I'm fairly sure that my dear friend Emma will appreciate that.

Boobs, on the other hand, not so much.

As much as I'd love to have a guild wars screensaver Timbo, (which, coincidentally, isn't that much) I really think that my manager and manyof my co-workers would absolutely love further opportunity to pay the ABSOLUTE SHIT OUT OF ME for being a massive computer-game geek.

Cheers anyway. LOL.

Eep.

And Hive - this will keep the girls happy for WEEKS. Happy girls makes for a happy Dave.

a little late but here you go dave
did a little search for you Dave to help things out [img]smile.gif[/img] , here are some free screensavers

http://www.freesaver.com/ and would recommend the nature or cute animals (puppy) ones, but you can let the ladies choose as well since there are several contents to choose from.

And making sure I dont randomly send you off to a spyware site [img]tongue.gif[/img] i tested it myslef. I downloaded the 3d animal screensaver which I must admit is pretty cool [img]smile.gif[/img] . Here is a screenshot

Almost all SS sites have to bundle adware, Google Search bars, etc., etc. with their "free" SS in order to make some money out of this cottage industry. What you have to do is....
1. DL the SS
2. Install the SS...reliable sites will ASK if you wish to install any bundled programs...choose NO.
3. Run your spyware and adware apps to remove anything they may have "neglected" to tell you was installed. If you are not the IT person at your office, then kindly ask the IT person to run the spyware/adware apps for you. I'm sure he/she will be DELIGHTED you have chosen to DL stuff off the web and install it on the network. Let us know if you need future employment.. [img]smile.gif[/img]
