I've been looking all over for this screensaver too. Here is the
closest thing I've found so far:

I know exactly which screensave you are talking about... the swirl one was
my personal favourite.

Not sure if they have it, but try www.wincustomize.com. They have thousands
of screensavers.

You may also want to try finding a machine running Win98 and just copy the
screensaver file onto a disk, then transfering it to your new WinXP
computer.

Just take it from your Win 98 or Win 95 Plus! disks. It's called Science.scr and put in in System32 folder.
