Look in any big software site under "desktop utilities" There
are thousands of them and many include a screen saver control
which includes a key shortcut or a tray button or a screen
corner to start it instantly. Many include stuff which you may
consider useless, to it's worth trying a few. My favorite of 10+
years, which, strangely enough, works in XP as well, is
ssswitch. It is so old all I can find now are crack sites - some
probably supply the whole program because it's very small. BTW,
most of those sites do NOT put malware in their programs/cracks,
it's a myth. Besides, scanning EVERYTHING you DL is a basic. If
you want, I can upload it to a file share site for you. Let me
know.
