Paul,

Email it too me -- chances are it's just too big. Contributing Members are allowed large uploads - up to 1 MB per post. BTW... this is legal to re-distribute -- right?

Loren,

I emailed it to you this morning (1x normal, & 1x zipped)... Did you get it yet?

Good question on the legalities, I am honestly not sure? I can tell you though that I didn't see a copyright anywhere...

I have emailed it to a few and they seem to have no problem installing it...

I will put in the mail right now, a CD-rom for Loren so that he can try uploading it on his end... Sorry for the wait. :(

Okay, thanks to drpaulmarsh you can download it below:

Screensaver (about 12 MB)

Unzip and follow Paul's instructions above.

I could not find any copyright information on the screensaver. Naturally it will be removed if it is proven otherwise.

For what it's worth, on my XP Home laptop I had to rename the 'porsche.scr' file 'ssporsche.scr' for it to show up in the list of screen savers for me to choose from. This may save someone else some time if it happens to not show up in the list.

If you are on Windows XP you can just right click and choose install (once the file is renamed to ssporsche.scr).

Give me a few minutes and I'll upload a new zip with the filename changed to ssporsche.scr.

Done.

What about those of us with Win98? Compatible?

[drpaulmarsh]

LV DELL:

It has been a long time since I used Win 98, but it is pretty much the same except the destination folder that your screen savers are stored in...

To find that :

1. Do a search on your computer hard drive for " *.scr"

(This will show you where every screen saver is located.)

2. Find out what folders the rest of your screensavers are stored in and write that path way down. (i.e. C:\windows\")

3. Next paste a copy of it into that folder and follow the instructions above.

Hope this helps,

Paul
