Re: Convert >scr to avi

said by vaxvms:

I was going to make an attempt to make you an avi file but the installation procedure for the screensaver was so nasty (tried to install adware, tried to change my homepage, tried to install a browser toolbar, tried to do other other nasties) I used Revo to uninstall all of it asap (the uninstall procedure opened a browser tab to a website offering to download a beach themed screensaver).

edit: It installed it's toolbar even tho I said no. It also tried to change my default search engine. BEWARE!

Thanks vax guy.

Fully aware of all that..it is tricky even thought one takes out the the check marks on the pre-install..there is one last screen that pops up to say it is all finished..but then on that screen you have to again take out two more check marks for the two things you mentioned to make sure that is not installed. When one does that all you do then get is the .scr installed in the Windows folder and nothing else. And of course it is that .scr that I would like to change into an .avi.
