Looking for a Fireplace Screensaver

Hi,

I'm looking for a free fireplace screensaver or mpeg. As detailed/real as possible.
When I search they end up wanting to put adware on the pc (which I obviously don't want). Anyone know of one that is truely free?

Cheers

    Thanks,
    But this is exactly the kind of thing I don't want.
    You have to install about 20 programmes including toolbar and all sorts of stuff just to get a fireplace screensaver. I know I'm being greedy wanting it for free....but I'm greedy and I just want the fireplace screensaver - not a lifetime committment.

    Hi,

    I use Magetic from Incredimail for my screensaver, have a look here:

    http://www.magentic.com/splash/splash.aspx

    Then go here for a look at their selection of fireplace screensavers:

    http://www.magentic.com/gallery/gallery.aspx?type_id=2&cat_id=10&coll_id=44&coll_name=Fireplace

    You'll also see on the left a vast menu of other screensavers they have for free.

    The only problem I have found is that when I want to get something new it tells me I don't have it installed, but a smaller link underneath will let you install no problem.

    Hope this helps.;)

  • Not that I want to resurrect an old thread but a lot of relevant info is included. I wondered if the problem was ever solved or it there's a useful update.

    Well I guess nowadays screensavers are mostly seen as pointless and not environmentally/financially friendly since they're no longer needed unless you have an old CRT monitor.
