Nevermind!!! c242 got me pointed in the right direction- Uninstalled everything and made sure I had the v1.00 SDC installed. Everything came up fine after that, and WindowBlinds is again working (and quite well, I might add!) WOOHOO!!!

Dagoz,
Be careful that you know where you stand when you talk about your rights. You didn't buy the program, you only bought the right to use it, and it is offered "AS IS". From the EULA: "Stardock disclaims all warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose." Which means you didn't pay for the right to use the perfected program, you paid for the right to use whatever version was out there at the time.
What we should be grateful for is that they don't just throw up their hands in frustration and walk away from the whole thing when we treat them like dirt, quite frankly, and make unreasonable demands, and then expect that they will treat us like their best friends in the whole world. Which, admirably, they still do; through excellent customer service.
And don't get me started on whether gratitude or rights under the law is more important to the well-being of human society...

Ok, so I download SDH 1.0 final release, then I uninstalled 3.5a, because SDH was not showing the update, and now I can not install 3.51, because I'm running WinNT4.0, and SDH says your out of luck "Windows98 or better"? I know that WindowBlinds3 was not in the OS list of compatibility, but I have been running this program on NT4.0 since it release with know problems. Please Help.

I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what setting I need to get it happy with NT4 installs. What's something on Stardock Central that is installing properly on NT for you?

Yes, It's Happy. Thanks for your quick response. I had used the old CM and installed 3.41 for the time being.

Graagh,
It seems like you're looking for a job as a lawyer of Stardock. Just don't forget that the "AS IS" clause specified in the EULA agreement doesn't totally except companies from their responsabilities of their products. In my opinion, it's a way for companies to cover their asses.
Good luck
