WindowFX 3.00.013 breaks WindowsXP Calc.exe

Calculator window appears but is functionally Tango Uniform

Well, the subject says it all... most...

Clicking buttons has no effect; typing numbers has no effect.
Seems like some event vampire is absorbing all the hits.

Unloading WindowFX immediately restores proper calculator function.

Windows XP SP2; Dell Dimension 8200; 1GB RAM; 14GB free on
partition size of about 40GB; tons of stuff installed.

Since WB is also running, here's the system info from there:

WindowBlinds 5.0 System Information Report:

STATUS : WB+ SRV+ HLP+ UI+ TRAY+

WindowBlinds is installed correctly on this PC.

WindowBlinds appears to be activated on this PC

You have Stardock WindowFX running. Please be aware that WindowBlinds 5 is not compatible with WindowFX 2.11 or 2.19. WindowFX 2.5 beta which is compatible with WindowBlinds 5 will be released later this year

Your machine supports per pixel borders on WindowBlinds skins.

You have one monitor in total.

(Plug and Play Monitor) 1 is attached to RADEON 9600 SERIES

I have just tried that here and it works without problems.

What settings do you have enabled in WindowFX?

Sorry Neal, I never got back to this, and I'm running Vista these days; no problems with Calc under Vista.
