Hello,

I've installed Win 7 Ult two weeks ago. Recently I've been noticing a strange behavior: the OS keeps changing my screensaver. It used to keep changing it to the Avast screensaver until I removed Avast. Now it changes it to no screen saver, every now and then. Once it even removed my desktop theme (changed to black).

Any experience with this?
Workarounds?

Thanks,
SOADA

It would appear that a "Desktop Theme" includes the desktop BG & the selected screensaver for the theme. All works well.
Very intuitive and comfortable interface by M$, BTW
