   Found this nice snow scene at cnet. Downloaded and installed under Win 7/64. Looks nice. Provided by a site called screensavergift.com. Be careful during the install. There are 2 places you need to decline adware.
   Cnet Winter Screensaver

   A beautiful holiday desktop is available from Microsoft. The desktop wallpaper rotates automatically every few minutes. One of my favorite is the saguaro cacti with lights.
   Originally offered 2010:

   Microsoft Holiday Desktop

   If you have any other favorite winter screensavers, let me know. A long time ago (Windows 3.1), I had a nice saver with a stream, forest, and snow at night.

   I got these links from a German computer magazine, my links are only for English software.
   All my links have a green WOT rating but I didn't download or test all the tools and games - so please look out for (maybe) toolbars or whatever.
   This collection of the computer magazine has a lot more links (70 !), free- and demo-ware, German and English.

   I can personally vouch for excellent reputation of NewFreeScreenSavers.com site. Also, MyWot and SiteAdvisor both give NewFreeScreenSavers.com a clean bill-of-health.

   All the holiday decorations are aimed at the northern hemisphere, now I know why - the South is made of chocolate:
