Please don't download the screensaver that Shawn suggested in post one. Freeze software is complete adware garbage.

Installed fine in Vista Home/32 without issues and activated without a key. License agreement calls it shareware and permits free distribution. Although screensavers aren't needed much today, I like this one as a mood enhancer left running on your computer to produce a festive Christmas holiday scene in 3-D. There is a lot of motion and the artwork isn't childish looking. It has an almost video quality and pans the snow covered landscape as snowflakes drift in, birds fly and perch on a park bench. The Christmas tree lights blink and the scenery is attractive. It's better quality that many online greeting cards. It's a nice "mood enhancer" and a keeper! Thanks, GOTD... and Merry Christmas!

Hi Everyone,

I use F-Secure and have never had any installation problems installing GOTD software until the last few days. I know get informed that a Virus (generic Trojan was removed), but I'm not sure if your installer has changed or it's because F-secure Internet Security has been updated from 2012 to the 2013.

Detection Names : Generic.malware.[variant], Generic.[variant],
gen:win32.malware.[variant],Gen:variant.[variant]
Category: Malware
Platform: W32

I love some of the software off this site, as I'm disabled and cannot afford to purchase lots of new software, plus the kids really like the games. Keep up the good work and can I say a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to yourselves and everyone using this site.

Thanks,
Ian

First of all Thanks to Garrett for Warning us on "Freeze" software. Wish noone here would Recommend a Software without Warning the users.

Installed A-OK on Vista Hm Prem.,X64, a Gateway with Intel T5750, 2.00GHz and Graphics ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 (so fairly decent Graphics Card).

Graphics are a bit choppy, Music is Good, Love the Rabbits, Birds and the flow of the Animation.

Wish we could get Some more Christmas ScreenSavers ... from Gemini or some other company.

May be Gemini will offer these also: 3D Merry Christmas Screensaver, Winter Night 3D Screensaver, Winter Night 3D Screensaver.

BTW, I remember I had seen a Fireplace Screensaver with Christmas Music ... does anyone know where can be had!?!?

Thanks Gemini & GOTD!:)

@5 and @11

Just uncheck and click on decline on the offers I also did mention in my post that little piece of information.

"Just make sure to uncheck all the stuff you don’t want…" Guess I should of placed it in CAPS... and for those who are used to sandboxie just install it inside a sandbox extract the screensaver and wipe the rest should you not be able to read what's on the screen.

nightbeforechristmas.exe for example is Accept, Decline on Ask toolbar, Decline on Registry Helper, Deckine on the Norton, Decline on the Install Uninstall Helper and voila no trash installed...

Just a browser page that opens like giveawayoftheday that does the same thing.

But Astro Gemini Software has been kind enough to offer today's screensaver so unless your having more than one christmas or having a problem with todays GOTD I suggest for the non tech savy to avoid freeze. But for those who are used to opt outs by all means check some of them out they are nice (I'm sure they can be found elsewhere also)

I'm still enjoying the one we received not too long ago with the snowy house.
