Titlebar missing but only in IE 7

Windows XP/SP3/Windowblinds 6.3
Like the previous two posters I have discovered the my titlebar has gone AWOL but in my case it is only in IE7.
I have tried reverting to IE 6 - where it is also missing ... so have reinstated IE 7
I cannot tell when this first happened as I only use IE infrequently .... much preferring Firefox ... but it is certainly the only program afflicted.
I could hazard a guess that it may be down to Microsofts emergency IE patch last week but that is pure speculation.
Anyone similarly affected and any thoughts as to a remedy?
(I have used Impulse to verify the installation and download the latest update and am told that all is OK)

This issue is now resolved.
I recalled that when I first installed Windowblinds over two years ago I had entered IE into the section which allowed you to change the appearance of an individual program.
In the past this has never stopped the program being skinned and I can only presume that by installing and triying a new skin recently this has somehow corrupted this setting and stopped IE being skinned at all (as I now realise that it was not just the titlebar but the entire skin which was missing)
Removing IE from this section of the Windowblinds setup has restored its skinning to normal.
