SaverNow!
version 1.4 (95/98/NT)
(C) Copyright 1999 Amichai Rothman

SaverNow! lets you easily control any installed screen saver with the click of a mouse button on a system tray icon. 

It is extremely convenient for instantly firing up a password-protected screen saver, so that your pc remains protected from prying eyes every time you leave your seat. 

Simply double-click the icon on the system tray (located on the taskbar) to activate the current screen saver, or click the right mouse button on the icon for an options menu.


Security note:

Older screen savers use their own password protection scheme rather than the Windows protection. This means anyone can press CTRL+ALT+DEL when prompted for the password and close the screen saver application, thus bypassing the password! When installing a new screen saver, you should make sure it is truly password protected.


Installation notes:

To install SaverNow!, simply copy the "SaverNow.exe" file to anywhere u like on your hard disk. You can check the "Load At Startup" option on the menu to have SaverNow! automatically load when you start up your computer.

If you move the file to a new location, make sure to uncheck and re-check "Load At Startup" in order for the new copy to load at startup.

SaverNow! is wholly contained in this single executable file. In order to uninstall SaverNow!, simply uncheck "Load At Startup" from the menu, and then erase the "SaverNow.exe" file. It's as simple as that!
