Reply to Weird problem since updating to WB 5.92.090 in WB 6.0 Beta WinCustomize Forums

Did msconfig. Stopped winamp from running at startup. Reboot. WB6 now keeps it's clothes on thru a reboot!! Not sure why disabling winamp at startup now allows WB6 to remember its settings. Will futz around a bit more now and then to see if something shakes loose. Thanks, Neil. Thanks, Mike. Great response and ideas on this. WB6 now appears to be happy. As for winamp, I'll poke and pry around there to see what's up. Z, tried Pandora and went back to wmp and then ultimately back to winamp. On

Just restarted, no winamp set to run at startup, and after bootscreen and logon, first thing showing was desktop, with taskbar white, as shown in shot. Preview pane in wbconfig shows NO taskbar after restart. Start panel unskinned. Uninstalled Sexy by vStyler, reinstalled, now shows taskbar in preview pane again never had a conflict with that and WB nope. I do not select to install the winamp agent, I just ha

What apps do you have running at startup? Now there's a possible clue. Every time I start up, Winamp is set to run, but I get an error saying winamp couldn't find so-and-so dll, and it can't run. I click that away and run winamp from winamp agent icon in systray. Quicktime also runs at startup and I can't find a way of disabling it without uninstalling iTunes for myiPod. Didn't make a difference with WB5.51, though. Everything just started up and ran as

Is there anybody still out there... Just us folks... Still got the bug, too. Running WB6 for a day, now, reboots half-a-dozen so far, then, just now got the same-old same-old: Sexy, by vStyler, reboot and no taskbar skinned and NO taskbar in wbconfig preview...?! Hoping it was a one-time burp. Hoping. <img src="http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g155/42n8k9/WB6p

"Dingos are Australia's wild dog, thought to have been brought from Asia by visiting boats, or perhaps with the Aborigines" Get the fool humans outta there, man. Leave all those places for the wildlife. If we'd get our shiite together, we'd be colonizing planets instead of whacking eath other and whatever's in reach. There. So.

stunning Pretty close to being as it was 500 years ago. Filter your drinking water, though. Check this out: over the summer and spring, so far this year, 30 bears have been killed on the highways here. Seven bear attacks on people, some just stepping out of their homes. Big "shooter bull" ranches where they raise elk to have folks fly in and shoot something. The innards are thrown on a "scrap pile" and the grizzes love it so they all come around. Some pe

Yes. Good news indeed. That is why I suggest removing WB, rebooting, and in fact it would be best if you deleted the entire skins directory. That way any bad security attributes will be removed. I seem to recall someone else with a similar issue found their problem was with their taskbar overrides settings. Because of this I am going to suggest you open regedit and delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Stardock\WindowBlinds That is assuming you are comfortab

Again... watch after your babies.. no matter how tough they think they are and do anything you can to fight violence \ abuse in your immediate surroundings I'm a single dad with a 12-yr-old daughter and 10-yr-old son. I tend to be overprotective, but at the same time let them go new places without me, with friends and trusted adults. The bottoms of my feet crawl when I think about someone doing such a thing as this. Good to hear he's on
