It can be made to work on win 2k by installing, go to c:winnt and get the *.fob files, rename them to *.swf. Then open these files in IE they should work as flash files. Go to deans3d install dir and grap any of the webpages, change the file reference from blahblah.fob to blahblah.swf. Then display, background, browse and find the webpage
VLC can do this with movies. And it does it much more efficiently. I propose someone makes a program based on VLC that runs in the background and plays a looped movie on your desktop. It's open source.
foxhound: JESUS. buy an intel dude. I have a 2.6ghz and it take 3-4%. wtf.my f*ckin pencil has 512mb of ram. Obviously if you want a lean mean machine, DONT INSTALL A FRICKIN MOVIE DESKTOP!!! I can't believe what people expect, they just dont think.

Something better, but not a stupid video running on your desktop (think osX shifting bg): uses java scripting, but needs a little optimizing. Here's the link:<a class="user" href="http://www.zansstuff.com/rotatedesktop.shtml">http://www.zansstuff.com/rotatedesktop.shtml</a>
