Frog0010 ScreenMate

Frog0010 ScreenMate is a small desktop enhancement app developed specifically for helping you place several animated mates on your screen. It is available for download on Windows 2K, XP, and Vista.

This is a portable program. You can open the utility by simply running the executable file because there’s no setup included in the process. You can get rid of it by deleting the files that you have downloaded from the Internet.

It does not store entries in your Windows registry and leave other setup files in your system. It actually saves the configuration files on the target computer. You may store it on USB flash drives and run it without administrative privileges.

Frog0010 ScreenMate gives you the possibility to enable multiple animations by opening different instances of the program. The application reveals an animated frog which moves across the lower part of your desktop in random directions.

Gaining access to the program’s configuration parameters can be done by right-clicking on an animated frog. What’s more, you are allowed to hide the selected frog, close it, or automatically run the utility at Windows startup. The animations can also be closed by right-clicking on the filename in the taskbar.

Tests have shown that Frog0010 ScreenMate carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered.

On the downside, the utility does not implement support for advanced parameters for helping you alter the appearance of the frogs with the aid of multiple themes, control their direction, and place them to the desired desktop position.

To sum things up, Frog0010 ScreenMate has to offer nothing more than a simplistic software solution for brightening the looks of your desktop with animated frog mates. The application is suitable especially for children because it creates an interactive environment on the desktop.
