For me, the only negatives were all the icons put on my desktop and in my Start Menu, and these were easily dealt with. Thanks for another very good, free download the quality of this screensaver is stunning, as are the other "limited" offerings available through its Manager. Hit any key, and I am up and running again in a matter of seconds.
