"Excellent!"
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
Brings back memories..., Very realistic, even simulates internet connection (it doesn't connect to anything)
Cons
There was no audio... Oh well
Summary
I thought it was great. I like now that you don't have to install it. Love the multi-monitor support. Very realistic. It reminded me of the first Matrix movie. Love it. Great job.

"Works like expccted"
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
-looks very cool
-does not lag or hog your system
-very customisbale (colors, speed, density, your name, the date and time displayed in the message, etc)Cons
-The .ini file seems to be pointless
Summary
1) for all the people wondering: yes, it works on Win7
2) to install, copy the .src file to C:\Windows\system32\, right-click and select "install"
3) to customise, open your screensaver dialog and click "configure", then click "options" in the pop-up. Easy enough for even the biggest novices to understand -
"Blurry Matrix Screen Saver, JUNK"
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
It's a free screen saver. It would be great if you run a Pentium P5 60-66 MHz.
Cons
For the real Matrix fan this doesn't cut it. It is like running a .gif for a screen saver and it's blurry. Sure it won't use almost no RAM but it's junk. Minimal configurations. Move onto the next one.
Summary
I would opt for one of the others. But that's just me.

Cons
Nothing up to now

"Completely legendary. Purely a work of green art."
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
Runs well, easy installation and not a memory hog. Relatively good graphics (for a screensaver that is), and has decent animation elements to make for a great experience.
Cons
Slight lag from when you move the mouse to when the screensaver vanishes. Recycles some of the animation over and over again, but is not excessively noticeable.
Summary
A 5 out of 5 star screensaver, despite some minor issues, but it still has my vote.

Plenty of options. Looks beautiful. Works perfectly on Windows 7,
Cons
None. This screensaver works perfectly.
Summary
This is what I have been looking for for a while. Other matrix code screensavers were not working, shareware, or had no options.

"Contains Key Logger/Spyware!"
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
...Cnet.com really should have done a better job picking this thing up...
Cons
Who the heck wasn't spyware anyway?
Summary
I am not telling anyone by any means that this is 100% true as I didn't actually leave this running long enough to find out whether or not if there really was spyware.
DOWNLOAD AT YOUR OWN RISK
Look I just know that Ad-aware's 'Ad Watch (Free)' told me on three tries every time that I tried installing this thing. That it found malicious spyware attempting to launch.
It was called PowerSpy. Googled it... This is what it came up with.

"I've seen better."
Version: Matrix Code Emulator Screensaver 1.5
Pros
Overall, it was a good piece.
Cons
It doesn't draw you in as much as I would like. You should make it so that the letters com in at different speeds, then meet in the center and follow through to the bottom.
Summary
I'm just giving constructive criticism. I want to see improvments and for you to strive to have the best one out there. As I said, it was a good piece.
