The Colour Clock
This digital clock screensaver translates the current time into a hexadecimal color code. Hours are mapped to red, minutes to green and seconds to blue channels, so a new color code is generated every second. The background color is continually adjusted to the calculated color, and the hexadecimal code is shown just below the time, both displayed in a bold, white font. You can, however, opt to show only the time or only the color.

For anyone having issues with the screensaver not working now that Flash is down- check out the comments on this post!

Like said in other comments, it stopped working after Flash was no longer a thing. RIP my favorite screensaver
So sad to lose this to the Great Flash Apocalypse. :(
Stopped working since it was flash based, will probably never see an update.
5+
0/10 stars, needs flash player, nobody likes flash player. Please fix it!

fine
I can't seem to find the ActiveX component required to use this screensaver, but it looks very promising!
This is so cool!
I use Windows 10 and it works :D
Using Windows 10, I don't know how to get it to run, sadly! I love the color clock in the browser, but my screen just won't save :(
Very cool and lots of customisation to make it exactly what you want.
Amazing! Very cool.
