What do 'Virus-Checked' and 'Spyware-Checked' mean?
At Screensavers-Themes.com, we want to provide our users with a safe environment for downloading and installing screensavers and wallpaper. As an added service, every screensaver and wallpaper on our site is scanned for known viruses and spyware, and then signed with a 'digital signature' to make sure that those screensaver and wallpaper files aren't tampered with once we scan them. We recommend that you also use virus and spyware scanning services on your computer in order to provide the most effective overall protection.
My Computer can't locate the flash.ocx file?
Some Screensavers require Flash Player in order to work.. especially screensavers that incorporate videos.
The Macromedia Flash OCX is a small plug-in which renders the SWF movie on your system. The Flash OCX (also referred to as the Flash Player) is available free from Macromedia. Over 98% of Internet users have the Flash Plug-In installed, but older systems may not. For instructions on how to download and install Flash Player and the necessary plug-in click here
This should help you get it downloaded and working properly.

I've downloaded a screensaver but don't see anything on my screen - where is it?
Once you've downloaded a screensaver, it will not display until your computer (keyboard, mouse and screen) has been idle for some set amount of time. To look at your current settings for screensavers, to adjust settings, or to preview the one you've downloaded:
Go to 'Settings' (in Start Button) - 'Control Panel' - 'Display' and then click the 'Screen Saver' tab.
Your new screensaver will display as the current screensaver in the drop-down menu. To preview the screensaver, click 'Preview'. To adjust settings (length of idle time before showing, transition rate etc.) click 'Settings'.
I've downloaded a wallpaper - where is it?
Once you've downloaded a wallpaper, it will install itself as your default desktop background so you should see it as soon as you minimize any open windows.
Do I need to adjust my display settings to view the screensavers?
Most screensavers will display properly with most standard color palettes and screen resolutions, so you shouldn't have to change your display settings. However - if the screensaver does not look its best (bland colors, too small on the screen, etc.), check the following:
Colors: All screensavers (unless noted) are full color. If you are running Windows and see sudden color changes, then your color palette may be set to 256 colors. To check your color palette settings, go to 'Settings' (in Start Button) - 'Control Panel' - 'Display' and then click the 'Settings' tab to change the color palette to 'High Color' (16-bit).
