Troth,
This is a screensaver I just bought. Did a search and found three files
located in  C: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 One is obiously the screensaver program.
One of the others probaly contains the pics themselves. One says .msf and
the other .wx1 if this is any help. It is the Stardust screensaver. Windows
says it can't open the files.

Well, it really depends... just because you installed the screen
saver, doesn't necessarily mean that it would have a specific folder for it.
Much of the older screen savers for Win98 and prior simply installed the 
scr file in the c:\windows or c:\windows\system folder.
But, you can check for a folder with a name representing the screen saver
under c:\windows or c:\windows\system or c:\windows\system32 or
c:\windows\program files or simply the root c:\
 
If you have a shortcut to the the screen saver settings in your START >
PROGRAMS menu, you can right-click and do PROPERTIES and it should show you
the location of the file.
