hmm, I'm gonna test that out...by that logic, I should be able to rename firefox.exe to firefox.scr and in 5 minutes, a Firefox window will open........

Tried it, it's true, but it does not work well. Makes me think it won't work correctly with something that's not deigned to be a screensaver. Even notepad was quirky when I tried to do it by renaming it to notepad.scr
