What is the difference between a normal exe and a screensaver?

Remember - Hard work pays off in the long run, but laziness pays off immediately.

Well I think a scr is the same as an exe. Windows calls it with one of 2 parameters: /c or /s (or is it \?). /c tells it to show a config screen, /s tells it to do the screensaver.

Yes, but there are a little bit more you have to think of...
I think there are some special functions for screensavers, and what is to displayed in the little preview (you know where you select screensaver...).

Well, anyway, search msdn or something, i''m sure you''ll find something more understandable there..
