DMOUSE is an excellant screen blanker, mouse accelerator, and sun mouse
emulator.  I believe it is PD not shareware, correct me on this guys.  This
program is a classic it works well and behaves well with almost all software I
have except some paint programs.  Some of them don't like the SUN mouse
feature, but in newer versions you are supposed to be able to disable it.  I
love it it make my Amiga seem much faster.  OF course 2.04 has a screen blanker
built in right???????????? Oh, if you want a nicer more attractive screen
blanker check out PD STARBLANK.  If you want these files send me you address.
And I'll try to send them out ASAP.  Note they are freely distributable.
