Exactly what i do... Besides, uxtheme.dll isn't a 3rd party app but simply a file existing in WinXP. The only difference is that the original is "locked" in order to force users to buy XP Plus!... I find this outrageous as personalising your OS has always been a free option. And neither can this be called "advertising" as uxtheme is a free DL, and should belong in WinXP in this form. Just my personal opinion...

cheerz, franco
