Three mysterious scr files

[Opinicus]

In my C:\Windows\System32 folder I just noticed three screensaver files I
don't remember seeing before:

ParaSaver.scr 135,168
PuzzSaver.scr 176,128
SpotSaver.scr 172,032

A Google search on these names turns nothing up. My system seems to be
virus-clean. Does anybody recognize these files or know where they might
have come from?

May have come with some download or program you installed. Did you scan them with
your virus software?

Yes they're clean. They also don't work, I just discovered.
