Free app to convert a GIF into an animated Screen Saver?

Randyman... · 06-24-07, 11:44 PM

OK - I see a few freeware apps that convert an animated GIF to a Windows Screensaver, but I'm betting they are riddled with Spyware/Malware

.

Does anyone have a good reccommendation for a free app that will let me convert this one stinking ".GIF" to a ".scr" Screen Saver file format for XP? I tried using XP's "My Pictures Slideshow", but it displays the GIF as a still image (the first frame).

Thanks! PS - I did search for GIF + Screensaver, but nothing relevant came up...

It's slightly limited because it is a trial, but it does the job!
