Watch out for the spyware that comes with a lot of these screensavers. You will find that if you use Adware/Spybot to take away the spyware, the screensaver won't work. :-\\
However, if you get no mention of spyware after using these devices - excellent! 8)

That's good news, Hairspray. Adaware and Spybot are great pieces of software that will remove spyware and can be downloaded free from these websites:
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/
http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=download
Scroll down a little and you will find the downloads at the bottom of the page.
The important thing is that spyware is a pain in the proverbial rectum, it can find out lots of personal details about you and can be very damaging to your computer. Most computer users don't even realise they have spyware.
My job is done . . . 8)

Well, if I did it right, this is what is on mine. I downloaded it from a "theme site", and if it is too big, I'm SORRY! And if it doesn't show at all, it's called "Eeyore Angel" and it's just that--Eeyore as an angel.  :)

Well, I don't know about that...but, yes, Eeyore did look less "fancy" (and I'm NOT talking about the angel wings!) in the original stories/pictures of him. Much more gray, a lot less blue!  :D
But hey, have ya seen Winnie the Pooh lately? All of the Hundred Acre Wood characters have been "updated" and made much more 'cartoon-ish' over the years. :) ÂÂ

I'm prejudiced because I had the original stories read to me as a little kid, so I got my own
pictures of what the Hundred Acre Wood characters are supposed to look like. Anyway, that Eeyore doesn't look like Eeyore so much as the offspring of Eeyore and Barney!
