Reviewed by: CNET staff on June 03, 2009
Free Fire Screensave sets users' monitors ablaze, igniting each window and icon in translucent flames. It's a cool effect, and the intuitive interface allows for just the right amount of customization; users can personalize their settings without being overwhelmed by options.
The features that users can tweak include the speed of the flames' flickering, whether the screensaver fades out or ends immediately upon exit, and the program's sounds and music. Users can choose between two built-in pieces of music (Romantic and Melancholic), set the program to use other music from the computer, or turn the music off entirely. Crackling fire sounds can also be adjusted in volume or turned off. This program offers multimonitor support for users who desire more than one blazing screen; this can be turned off for those who don't. Users can also easily take a screenshot of the flaming desktop, which could provide a not-so-subtle way to tell your boss what you really think of your latest assignment. (If only it showed holes burning through Word documents!)
This freeware installs and uninstalls cleanly, making it a hassle-free desktop enhancement. Users who want to add a little bit of heat to their computers should find this an enjoyable addition to their screensaver collections.
Publisher's description
From Laconic Software :This nifty screensaver sets your desktop ablaze. When you fire up Free Fire Screensaver (no pun intended), each item on your desktop - including icons and all open windows will appear to catch on fire, glowing and emitting a smoke effect. The crackling and popping sounds, chimes an music that accompany the screensaver are very nice. Free Fire Screensaver includes two perfect built-in soundtracks, but your favorite music can be set as well. Using the "Enter" key, you can even capture a picture of your burning desktop. To help keep Free Fire Screensaver free, it is bundled with optional Crawler Toolbar. It's a tiny useful add-on for your browser which is not considered to be any kind of malware.
Version 1.31 fixes a general bug when the screensaver would not start automatically on some systems.

Version: Free Fire Screensaver 1.31
Pros: This is a cool screensaver and it makes your computer look really cool when the screensaver comes on...
Cons: The only thing that I hate about this screensaver is that other stuff will be downloaded onto your computer as well so make sure and go get a FREE! program called "IObit Security 360" to clean out your computer from malware and spyware
Summary: This screensaver will make your computer look awesome with the flames and stuff but be careful and download at your own risk...

Version: Free Fire Screensaver 1.31
Pros: The fire is really cool and changes depending on the background. Music, including very realistic fire noises (cracking wood), is supplied. Even better, you can set your own music to play.
Cons: The colors are sometimes a little off from what I would like them to be, but it's still really good.
