Flurry Screensaver

If you recently bought a new monitor, you should consider turning it off whenever you don't use it, to avoid a high energy bill or the dreaded stuck or dead pixels that might appear on your screen.

However, if you don't care much about the energy bills or turning off your monitor is too much of a hassle for you, you can opt for a screensaver such as Flurry Screensaver.

Not only does this application decorate your workspace, but it can really improve the wellbeing of your new display monitor by preventing dead or stuck pixels from forming on the screen and other undesired phenomena like burn-ins or image persistence.

The animation constantly refreshes your pixels and prevents them from getting stuck during its runtime. Or at least it reduces the chance that these things will happen.

If you don't own a Mac, this is your chance to shine, as this screensaver is based on the famous Flurry screensaver. The only condition for it to run is that you have an OpenGL-compatible graphics card.

It works like any other screensavers; you just let your computer rest for a while so that it reaches its 'idle' mode and Flurry Screensaver suddenly spawns on your screen. If and only if you installed it beforehand, that is

This tool can be deployed to the target computer extremely easy. Since it comes with the SCR extension, you can double-click it to test it without installing it first.

If, however, you want to install it, you can right-click its icon and choose "Install" from the combo menu, as the rest of the process unfolds without any further assistance on your side.

If you're lowkey envious of your Mac-owning friends and want to get a bite of their experience, you can install Flurry Screensaver and enjoy its animated flames dancing on your screen. It can be easily installed (or not), protects your display monitor and is quite famous among Mac users.
