sorry.... I really don't uderstand your answer???
I think he meant to say he "woudn't" download these screensavers. They usually are the means for advertisers to get pop ups and spyware to your pc. You don't just get a free screensaver.

ok thank's trymelatr...
Just more crap that will screw up your computer. Stay away from all these "free" useless programs for screensavers, etc.
Hey listen these things are dangerous if you must use them have a good spyware remover i recommend ad aware or spybot search and destroy keep them up to date i believe you can get both of them completly free from www.download.com any way the screen savers are in
root:\WINDOWS\system32 (root being your drive letter C: D: E: etc etc) any way the program is not dangerous in itself but it does give spyware and other potential malicious programs if you want any more information dont hesitate to ask

In reference to downloads.com, I beleive you can get free screen savers from there as well as the spyware removal tools. I also highly recommend those tools.
I agree with luv2smile, those screen savers that you download from places like downloads.com are full of adware and spyware. A while back I installed one and ended up with tons of adware and spyware.
You also mentioned you wanted to know where the wallpaper is stored:
Either in:
C:\windows
Or
C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper

I dont recomend ww.download.com, their utility and software are very outdated. They didnt seem to update their database. That's wat I found outl.
