Hello,you mean download them?Try this:Windows Vista / XP Screensavers - Download 3D Aquarium Screensaver, Fireplace, Dinosaurs, Money Screen saver This link is only an example.

You just download and use dispaly properties to set them.

I have used this link a few times Free Screensavers by Appleblossom Art

Please check Microsoft website they have a few.

Please note I have only ever used standard picture backgrounds never the animated ones.

Only download and install from trusted spyware free siites

Yes Ash it is possible,you either download a animated background and set it as background under display settings.

Or you can in theory you can create your own.

Actually theirs a program called VLC media player Only reason I don't use is because It makes my mouse weird.
After downloading and installing VLC Player make your way to Settings > Preferences > Video > Output Modules > Direct X. In order to see all the settings available, you will have to check the Advanced options box in the bottom right corner. Enable Wallpaper Mode is such an advanced option; it is disabled by default, but you can just enable it by checking the box next to it.

Now it's time to simulate the behavior of DreamScene. In this sense, navigate to Settings > Preferences > Interface > Main Interfaces > wxWidgets and simply uncheck the box next to the Taskbar option. This will remove VLC Player from the Windows Taskbar while the application is running, and it will be running extensively. And if you select Settings > Preferences you will also be able to loop a single video fragment. Enjoy!

If you have Vista you can do this, Ultimate has it built-in, and you can go to customize.com and look up Dreamscene
