I don't have an example but I would recommend doing this in the computer startup scripts. Just have the script pull the file from wherever. At this point you are running as localsystem of the machine so you will have the perms to put it anywhere on the box you like and will be done before the user logs on.
 
Computer Configuration | Windows Settings | Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)
 
Copy the files to the GPO's startup folder (click on Show Files on the interface to open an explorer window to the location) and specify the script/batch file you want to run. You could add the screen saver file to that folder as well.
 
I guess you could do an install package as well but that might be overkill.

Subject: [ActiveDir] GPO to copy a file to all machines

Does anyone have an example of using a GPO to copy a file to all machines?  I have a screen saver I am supposed to distribute across the organization and really dont want to do it manually.
 
Thanks.
