Glad that your question has been answered, but I'm curious now what reason you have for using a screensaver?

I understand custom screen savers, because they can be themed and show images that you like, but a standard screensaver?

I don't know of any modern CRT that could "burn-in," so the true use of a screensaver is moot; if you want to save energy, just use your standby modes - not hibernate, but standby.

Just a thought..
