The Diamond Skin that comes with it is very nice and Vista-ish.

You can find many skins in the WB gallery: https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?libid=1

there's also a 'vista-ize me' option in the transparency/blur section

Did you use the trial and did it expire?

If so, you'll need to purchase the full version to enjoy the benefits.

Its somewhat technical. U say ur windows has updated itself perhaps to sp3... Verify it.
How? Right click on my computer icon on desktop then on properties.
A,..IF ur os is windows XP SP3 DO THIS...
1 Search 4 skinny on download.com
2 Google ... Patched uxtheme.dll for sp3 ....
3 Using skinny patch ur uxtheme.dll
4 u shud b able to use themes now
N IF UR OS is still sp2
1...download n install stylexp trial version from tgtsoft.com
2 restart n then uninstall it

I meant your reply.  LOL

For what it's worth, Windowblinds skin more elements better.  If someone posts here with uxtheme problems the first thing I recommend is "Drop that zero and get with the hero!" (Vanilla Ice, Cool as Ice)
