This simple but very helpful site contains instructions on how to do so: Clicky.

Thanks Jason, but there was no help there. I feel pretty stupid, I mean ,I am a tech but I'm getting old and can't remember every little thing about software. I have the screensaver sitting in a file in my documents but I can't remember how to get it into the control panel folder so I can select it. I did it once before a long time ago, and I remember using ms explorer and draging and dropping the file into a folder but I can't remember which one.

Oh, I believe you drag and drop the screensaver file into either of these folders C:\Windows or C:\WINNT (depending on your Operating System) and then it'll appear in the screensaver list of properties.
