Popular Screensavers Reviewer's Comments

After trying multiple times and following the instructions provided for troubleshooting; we were unable to access the Popular Screensavers service website or any of its screensavers.

The problem we encountered is in order to gain access to the Popular Screensavers site you must install Active X Control, which has the capacity to allow malicious applications to cause harm your computer. Most good anti–spyware, including ours, will block dangerous Active X files from ever downloading on your computer.

As with all screensaver websites there is no guarantee downloads will be adware and virus free. We’ve found a great deal on anti–virus and anti–spyware software at online retailer Herman Street. Right now you can buy the #1 rated anti-virus program, Bit Defender, and the #1 rated Spyware Eliminator (a $54.90 value) for just $24.95.

If this Active X Control is any indication of what to expect from the Popular Screensavers website we’re glad we didn’t get in. There are plenty of capable screensaver services that provide great screensavers. Check out the other screensaver sites at the top of our review.
