All screen savers use .scr as the extension. These are not graphics 
images but programs with imbedded images. If you look at scrfile in your 
registry, you will see that they are "run" by desk.cpl, the desktop 
control panel.

If you do an Internet search for "scr files", you will find programs 
that claim to permit editing the contents of or creation of .scr screen 
savers.
