What is it?
A screensaver that displays the .NET logo at random positions with an interval
of 10 seconds - an exact copy (including the config message box) of the
Windows� 2000 Logon screensaver, except that of the image used (of
course!). A good way to display 'loyalty' to the .NET framwework :-).
The code could be easily modified to create a screensaver of your own.
Conclusion
Code straightaway! Happy programming...

This code seems to handle multiple monitor displays (the original just blanked the primary display.) I've not tested it with different resolutions on my two monitor's though - there might be another posting soon 
private void ScreenSaverForm_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Rectangle rectBounds = new Rectangle(0, 0, 0, 0);
for(int x = 0; x <= Screen.AllScreens.GetUpperBound(0); x++)
{
rectBounds.Width += Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Width;
}
rectBounds.Height = Screen.AllScreens[0].Bounds.Height;
this.Bounds = rectBounds;
VisibleRect = new Rectangle(0, 0, Bounds.Width-pictureBox.Width, Bounds.Height-pictureBox.Height);
Cursor.Hide();
TopMost = true;
}

That code does only work correctly if
a) the leftmost monitor is the primary one,
b) the monitors are sitting next to each other (not *above* each other) AND
c) the leftmost/primary monitor has the highest Y:-solution.
This code is an improvement of the fix above and fixes the problem:
private void ScreenSaverForm_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int xmin=0;
int xmax=0;
int ymin=0;
int ymax=0;
for(int x = 0; x <= Screen.AllScreens.GetUpperBound(0); x++)
{
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Left<xmin)
xmin=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Left;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Top<ymin)
ymin=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Top;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Left>xmax)
xmax=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Right;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Top>ymax)
ymax=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Bottom;
}
Rectangle rectBounds = new Rectangle(xmin, ymin, xmax-xmin, ymax-ymin);
this.Bounds = rectBounds;
VisibleRect = new Rectangle(0, 0, Bounds.Width-pictureBox.Width, Bounds.Height-pictureBox.Height);
Cursor.Hide();
TopMost = true;
}

A minor fix is needed in the code so that xmax and ymax are set correctly...
private void ScreenSaverForm_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
int xmin=0;
int xmax=0;
int ymin=0;
int ymax=0;
for(int x = 0; x <= Screen.AllScreens.GetUpperBound(0); x++)
{
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Left<xmin)
xmin=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Left;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Top<ymin)
ymin=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Top;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Right>xmax)
xmax=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Right;
if(Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Bottom>ymax)
ymax=Screen.AllScreens[x].Bounds.Bottom;
}
Rectangle rectBounds = new Rectangle(xmin, ymin, xmax-xmin, ymax-ymin);
this.Bounds = rectBounds;
VisibleRect = new Rectangle(0, 0, Bounds.Width-pictureBox.Width, Bounds.Height-pictureBox.Height);
Cursor.Hide();
TopMost = true;
}
