I have no idea how to properly describe this feature so I don't know what keywords to search for help or previous posts.

I use BOINC 7.0.28 on Windows XP with SETI@home. When the screensaver kicks in, it shows the classic SETI@home data/graphs, but the whole thing is bobbing and turning and twisting and floating and it makes me nauseous. It's really annoying.

Is there any way to turn off this "floating, wavy, bobbing & twisting" mostion effect and just have the charts & graphs sit still? If there's no option to turn off this nauseating motion effect, will someone please add it?!?!

Thanks.
