It seems that everyone is jumping on the bandwagon and creating toolbars that are supposed to make your life easier. Maybe monopolize your websearching and take note of your browsing habits. This seeminly benign screen saver is a wolf in disguise. They want to you install the screen saver but only in the license agreement do they mention that it will also install a tool bar and collect your personal information. You will have to opt out if you don't want them to do that. I didn't feel like exposing my system to this kind of SLIME ware. Why not be honest and up front about it! Instead they prey on people's unwillingness to read the liscence agreement and install additional components to their computer.

Best:

NONE

Worst:

Devious installation!
