What works
Screensaver: Installation, configuration (including gamma control), and operation.
Manager: Web Update, Download, and Buy Now! buttons in the manager.
What does not
Wine does not correctly handle the menu entry command line for scr files. The screensaver command line:
wine "C:\windows\system32\rundll32.exe" desk.cpl,InstallScreenSaver c:\windows\system32\THE_~3FS.SCR
results in:
err:rundll32:main Unable to load L"desk.cpl"
Executing the scr files from winefile works correctly.
The Help button in the manager doesn't function. Terminal message is:
fixme:htmlhelp:HtmlHelpW Not all HH cases handled correctly
Screensaver sound volume level has no effect.
Disabling sound in screen saver halts animation, possibly by design.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Automatic activation (I don't think Wine supports it yet).

Additional Comments
Would be platinum if menu entries worked correctly. Tested with Nvidia GeForce 6600GT (AGP) and proprietary driver v100.14.19 Messing with gamma left my monitor stuck at the wrong level - possibly an Nvidia or X bug. In addition to the general eye candy benefit this application will help keep your LCD pixels from getting lazy :D
