Must admit I'm not a screen saver type, but that is way cool it would drive me up the wall yet it is oddly hypnotising. On a second note screensavers used to be one of the biggest way of downloading nasties to your pc from searches online.

That one also sounds amazing, the heartbeat is hypnotic.

As to nasties many of the free screensaver sites still harbour the worst kind of drive by downloads, this one is clear though, I did check first. ;D

It had me caught up for a while but I'm told by my Wife that NO is the answer, she hates heartbeat sounds  ::)

I know that these aren't screen-savers but there's a huge selection of "desktops" here, I use one of them. ;D http://www.caedes.net/Zephir.cgi?lib=Caedes::Gallery&gallery=abstract&page=1

Turn the sound off or give her some ear plugs  ;D

I was worried on my bike this morning, 8 miles into a nagging head wind. I bet the wind direction has turned 180 dgrees by the time I make the return journey.

I can't remember the last time I used a screensaver, but that is pretty cool.  :)

Guaranteed, Glenn. The weather has a perverse sense of humour...

I had to revisit this thread to give you a karma for that link Noreen. I can rarely find anything I really like for a desktop but there are quite a few there that really appeal to me. Thanks for posting a great link  :thumb: :karmic:

It always does when I'm out on my bike in bad weather. Ride to work in a head wind with driving rain and you can guarantee it calms down while I'm in work, only to happen again 8 hours later on the return journey. Great fun :D
