Turn Your Screen Saver On or Off With One Click
Elizabeth Holden of Langhorne, Pennsylvania, asks if there's a simple way to turn a screen saver off and on--a handy convenience before defragging your hard drive and performing other time-consuming tasks. The easiest way I know is with a small, free program by Trainedmonkey called Tarsier (I don't make up these names, folks). After you load it, Tarsier sits quietly in your system tray, and one click will either disable or enable the screen saver. The icon's appearance changes to tell you the current status. Visit "tarsier: a screen saver toggle for windows" to download the program.
