Help me find a Simpsons screensaver I remember from the 90's.

Is the Simpsons Screensaver I remember from my youth still available?

When I was a kid, my dad's computer has this amazing Simpsons screensaver on it. This was maybe ten or fifteen years ago, on an ancient 386 running Windows 3.1. While the screensavers I've found on the web just show shots from the show or publicity images, this screensaver was incredibly varied; Itchy and Scratchy would do battle on your desktop, Homer would slowly eat the screen, Grandpa would doze fitfully, that sort of thing. It was a really great screensaver and I'd love to have it again. Can anyone tell me the name of the product and whether or not it's available?

Best answer: I believe this is what you're looking for, although I haven't found a download (probably abandonware, by this point) location.

Response by poster: Hmm. That's pricey for a floppy disk from 1995. Still...

omg, I had this on my Mac. I still remember the day I was, erm, hooking up with someone and the screensaver came on, randomly playing Krusty: "WHO DO YA LOVE? EH? EH? WHO DO YA LOVE!"
