PolarClock for Windows

User Reviews

• Simple and clean, but has a few bugs on 64-bit OS'es

  istarlamanionDecember 7, 2009

  Pros

  The minimalistic design accomplishes what a lot of other "clock" screensavers try to achieve without all the clutter

  Cons

  Being flash-based, it's a bit difficult to install on 64-bit operating systems (check comments here: http://blog.pixelbreaker.com/polarclock) Glitches the taskbar on 64-bit windows 7 if you let the display turn off

• Beautiful screensaver, but creates a keyboard problem.

  mackojackOctober 26, 2009

  Pros

  Elegant design with subtly shifting colors, a most unusual clock.

  Cons

  When this screensaver is in use, the F3 key (Show All Windows) does not work on MacBook Pro keyboard or external keyboard. As soon as I disable the screensaver and reboot, the key works fine again. Tested multiple times. (OS X 10.5.8)

  Summary

  Although it's a beautiful screensaver, I don't use it because it causes a problem with my keyboard. I hope the developer will fix the bug.

• Nice little screen saver

  cartoonvillainJune 18, 2009

  Pros

  Simple, clean, barely uses system resources. Ignore that other 'review' written by CheeseKing (I wonder if he even know how to detect a keylogger). CNET and Norton AV report it as safe. Installed very easily.

  Cons

  I kind of wish it would change colors on the inner rings, and look less stagnant. No biggie.

  Summary

  It's a good little screen saver, no frills but does what it says it does. Enjoy!

  Pros

  Cons

  When I installed and tried to use PolarClock SnoopFree Privacy Shield alerted me that it was trying to hook my keyboard! It had no reason to do that.
