		<description>AnimatedDesktop works well, though I experience problems when the desktop is locked and then I unlock it / wake up my laptop from hibernation/etc.  When any of this happens, the desktop background stays black (AnimatedDesktop prog is still running), and I then have to disable AnimatedDesktop and then re-enable it to restore the screensaver background.  I suspect this having to do with logon screen/Aero re-loading after logging in to the workstation after being locked/woken up from hibernation.  Does anyone have a fix/solution/suggestion for this? Thanks a lot.</description>

&#039; You are free to use this was you wish, however, you must acknowledge that
&#039; this script is released as is, and I am not liable for any damages or 
&#039; problems as a result of this script.
&#039;
&#039; KNOWN ISSUES: It paints over your desktop icons, and I can&#039;t fix that here.
&#039; I&#039;m sure this can be replicated in other programming languages, and a
&#039; transparent file explorer control showing the desktop would probably fix
&#039; this limitation.
&#039;
&#039; The script uses a small utility called cmdow.exe to find the desktop&#039;s 
&#039; window handle. Google it.

	If len (stdOut) &gt; 0 Then
	
		Dim stdArray1,stdArray2,stdArray3
		&#039;cmdow.exe outputs two lines, so we split it.
		stdArray1 = Split(stdOut,chr(13))
		&#039;Next, we split the second line along the spaces - the first element in array is the handle in hex format.
		stdArray2 = Split(stdArray1(1))
		&#039;Finally, I split again to remove the 0x, so we are left with only the hex value itself.
		stdArray3 = Split(stdArray2(0),&quot;x&quot;)
		&#039;Convert it back from a hex.
		programManagerHandle = CLng(&quot;&amp;H&quot; &amp; stdArray3(1))
		&#039;msgBox(&quot;Handle is: &quot; &amp; programManagerHandle)
		
		&#039;Execute whatever screensaver you want to see:)
		&#039;Use Task Manager to stop it running.
		&#039;objShell.Exec(&quot;C:\Windows\System32\mystify.scr /p &quot; &amp; programManagerHandle)
		objShell.Exec(&quot;C:\Windows\System32\aurora.scr /p &quot; &amp; programManagerHandle)

		<description>Can someone tell me exactly how to do this?


to install flowBubbles:

1.just copy flowBubbles.scr to system direction. for example, c:\windows\system32
2.press right button of mouse on flowBubbles.scr, select install,test,set from popup menus you like.

Options:
1. Bubbles num defines how many bubbles will disappear when screensaver run.

2. Bubble size defines the radius size of the bubbles.

3. Show Shadow defines if the bubbles have a shadow or not. 

4. Sound Open defines if open the sound effect. the sound is play when bubbles crash together.

5. Picture settings defines the background image. You can use the default image, desktop image or select a picture as background</description>

		<description>Hey, I&#039;m really excited about this program.  This is something completely new for me.  I&#039;ve been running dreamscene from Vista Ultimate, but it didn&#039;t flow very well when it restarted the &#039;movie&#039;.  Additionally, Dreamscene would take up too much of my CPU power.  

Anyways, the purpose of my post is to ask if this software works with 3rd party screensavers, say, something i downloaded off the internet??</description>

		<description>Thankyou very much Nate for the fix. Works great. I have just one problem. I have the My pictures Screen saver enabled, but it keeps looping the first 10-15 photos only not my whole directory Is there a way around this</description>
