The Wikipedia screensaver loads random pages from Wikipedia every 30 seconds or so.

Features:

 Configurable time delay between each page load
 Can automatically kill IE and Firefox browsers on activation
 Can be configured to kill any other program on activation
 Blanks the screen completely after a configurable time

Limitations:
This is an old program; written years ago, and not updated in a while. It runs on Windows XP; in Windows Vista and Windows 7 it runs only if logged on as an admin user; not as a limited user. It does not yet run on 64 bit Windows Vista or Windows 7. If you have installed it successfully on other platforms, please drop us an email and tell us about it! It requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 or later.

Editor's Note:
We ran this just fine in Windows 7 64-bit. It should run on most operating systems but only one way to find out.
