SP1 breaks style xp

Looks like Service Pack 1 for Windows XP breaks all those unsigned msstyles.

Actually it doesn't....some of the .cpl functions dont want to work while skinned with the hacked uxtheme.dll but all you have to do is unload the msstyle and go back to luna and they will work. When you are done then you can go back to the msstyle. Pain in the butt for sure.....

Actually, I'm using Windowblinds 3.3 on XP SP1, and I'm having problems with the "Add/Remove Programs panel and it's features, the menu just will not load with WB running. Anybody else have that problem? I've checked to make sure it wasn't just that skin...but it won't load under any skin.

Strange. This may have something to do with a related problem (MS programmers hardcoded some values so if you disable toolbar skinning the left-hand background looks bad). Note that you can temporarily disable skinning of new windows by holding down CTRL as they appear, so you don't have to unload if you're having problems.
