Side note: A "PC-Help-Department" at a former company had problems with Screen Savers. So, they blamed everything on the screen saver. Even if it was built in Screen-saver in Windows. <Shock>

A long time ago, when first introducing PC's over 5250's (With huge
twinax cards and dongles) we had a problem where for some strange reason
the PC-5250 would keep dropping sessions. It would seem to work
flawlessly for hours on end, then just decide to drop.

Turned out some had a screen saver, Johny Castaway, that when running
would be so CPU intensive that the PC just gave up on dealing with the
twinax cards. Mind you, this was back in the day with win3.11 and I
vaguely recall either a 386 or 486.
