    I participate in the at home project SETI and the screen saver is really nice and fun to watch.

    I remember a few years back on XP I would get notices that the screen saver should be disabled because it could block the AV from running a scan when the PC goes into non-use mode. Haven't actually used one since then (screen saver) so hard to say if the same applies to OS's 7 on up.
