No skeleton?

from Stardock Forums

Okay I downloaded the freebie halloween theme for mycolor but after I run the apply in My Colors I don'tt get the skeleton that they show sitting ontop of the start menu. Am I doing something wrong, needing to change an option in mycolor or was my download messed up?

Check your system for any extra 'security' apps that may be running in the background. SpyBot, AdAware, Spyzilla, etc. can affect this.

Kapersky and Norton 360 have also had issues with our software. Sometimes these apps think there is an attack going on, and prevent it from fully skinning.

Nope I have none of those sorts of programs running. Even though I know its not wise I'm not even running a firewall right now. If I load a different skin like magic the hat shows up so not sure whats wrong

The start menu animations for XP need an updated version of WindowBlinds.  That version is being tested and I will give an update when info is available.

Perhaps would it be nice (and better) to align your softwares on these very popular 'security' apps don't you think ? >_>

While better alignment may be good in general it wouldn't solve the problem for me as I'm not using any of the apps mentioned

I have the same problem and I also don't run any of the apps mentioned above. I keep all of my Stardock software updated. I still think it is a wonderful theme.

Running XP?  Known issue.  Being addressed.
