YAY!!! It's done Now! I will be publishing my Dev Log for it (and maybe the code...) later. I hope you enjoy it, and feel free to report bugs/ask questions.

Run it with /noglass at the cmd prompt and it should still work.

Omnicoder, I am running vista screensaver on winXP SP2 and they are working fine, the only problem are the configuration have to be done manually. I noticed you have an applet that works on Vista. Do you think you could make some adjustments that would make it work on XP also? I have tried the /noglass option and it did not work. There was an error from .Net Framework about "Unhandled exception" "Attempted to read or write protected memory". Thank you.
