You can try converting it into a .scr and then adding it into
C:\Windows\System32
Then just go to Control panel and change the screensaver like normal

(not tested) but should work

Im thinking you want the countdown running in the screensaver. It would use up a bunch of resources. We could tell you more if you told us abt your computer specs.

how do you change it to a .scr file?

You could start here:
convert swf to scr - Google Search

I am playing with a couple of apps I found to do a conversion.

It dont work btw because I just tried converting it, the countdown thinks the time is already up when it's converted into a .scr.



EDIT: that's with using 'InstantStorm' to convert it to scr btw, it may work if you can get it to load a web-page as a scr with it embeded maybe.

Chances are, a simple conversion from swf to scr will not work. The reason being, that the swf is (very likely) relying on a xml value for the dates and countdown timer. Unless it was hard-coded, which it rarely is, it's won't keep the accurate values or possibly any at all once converted. Just a thought...

EDIT:

Just noted the above. Again, look for an xml value is the swf/fla file. Unless it can be hard-coded, it won't work.

If all else fails have a look at this option ....

I'm sure you could customize the look to suit
