Which version of Windowblinds are you using? If you are using the trial version you may not get the full benefit of the program. The purchased version works perfectly.

Open WindowBlinds config and go to the About WindowBlinds tab. Copy and paste the info here. Did you reboot after installing?

I for internet explorer do not allow skinning because the title bar never shows in text. I have tried just do not skin tile bar but the min max and close buttons get all screwed up. Yes I have the Latest and greatest WB

Let me clarify that.

IE9 never shows titlebar text when an OS theme is running.  Only in Windows Classic mode does it revert to the IE8 look.

And that is why i exclude IE form being skinned, like I said before if I just exclude the tile bar the Min Max and close buttons get all screwed up because the classic mode button and the skinned button both show up

This isn't a bug though.  Thats simply how IE works.
