currently it only ran the 1st prog i added;

i added 3 to top and bottom box

it does not re-run that first prog after i move my mouse/press a key

when it initially runs the screensaver it displays a black rectangular box (background black w/ white text 'Idle')

this does not disappear after i move my mouse

Hmm, it runs all the programs for me (not just the first one).  Have you tried highlighting the program thats not working in the list and clicking 'Test' to see if it runs ok?

I changed the sensitivity of the mouse.


The idea of the little box coming up is to simply tell you that the pc is idle, (and helps detecting Mouse Movement!)


Try this newer version.

Ok, just as an experiment, move the mouse a bit slower.... 

let me knwo what happens..

Ok, try this for starters. 

Just click run the executable and answer the questions to it installing the screensaver, and to setting as default.

Once installed, you'll be able to go to 'Diplay Properties' on the desktop and go to 'settings' in the Screensaver TAB to add/remove programs to run.

Set your screensaver time, and hopefully this should then run at that point.  Also, running all the programs in the top half of the settings.

once it comes out of 'Idleness', i.e. a key is pressed or a mouse oved then the programs on the bottom are run (I think this was what you needed).

If it all works I'll tidy up and create a little help file.

Sorry, I meant 'Spinning' ahead..

So, this program above you would run as the screen saver.  Then, to this program itself, you can set a number of programs to run when this is activated (i.e. the screensaver starts) and also run applications when this program terminates (i.e. the screen saver ends, for example moving the mouse). I think this is what you were originally asking for?  As you can see, you can add as many programs as you like to this to run at those points.

If this IS what you want, let me know and I'll carry on.

Thanks

Before I go sinning ahead too much, this is what I've done so far:
