"Avoid this software!"
Version: Watery Desktop 3D Animated Wallpaper & Screensaver 3.996
Pros
Watery Desktop worked fine, but immediately began nagging you to register it. Rather annoying to say the least. However that's not why I gave it a negative review.
Cons
I clicked on the provided link within the software to see what other screensavers might be for sale on the publisher's site. I downloaded "Dreamscene Video Wallpaper". After installing it I noticed my firewall was asking if the software could use my browser as a server...never heard of that before. I denied it access to my browser then immediately saw my firewall log up to 100 different attempts made by the application to access what seemed to be 100 different IP addresses. Not sure if that is true because I didn't log the addresses. I denied those requests as well.The application acted like a virus!! I immediately removed the software and scanned my computer. Fortunately, nothing was found.
Summary
The software CNET provides from PUSH Entertainment is clean, but whatever this business has on their site is not. BEWARE! I mean honestly...what screensaver needs your browser as a server?
I attempted to contact PUSH Entertainment about what happen with their software. When I sent an email through their site a page came up saying the system administrator had disabled that function. While the trial software is safe here, I would be concerned if I had to pay for then download a new piece of software to replace the trial. Don't know if it works that way or if it just unlocks what you have, but I would not be willing to take the chance of unlocking something that may give PUSH access to my computer.
