Small problem with Windowblinds 3.3 and IE6
Tuesday, July 16, 2002 by Strider0663 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I was testing out some skins, and I was using a kinda dark one which looked real nice. But I noticed that the windows logo at the top right of the Internet Explorer window wasn't there anymore, just a black box. So I switched skins, in hopes that it would go back to normal. But it didn't, stayed a black box.
This wouldn't bug me much, other than the fact that I'm a minimalist and I took out the status bar from IE. So I depend on the little spinning logo to let me know if the site is loading or whatnot.
Anyone know what's wrong or how to fix this?

Uh, I feel stupid, heh. I rebooted, and there it was!

Put one in?! You can put a custom in there...?
The skin I'm currently using is Makinarama. If you could explain how this is done, I'd be very thankful.

It's an add-on. Adds skinning and popup catching. You can try it from https://www.stardock.com/products/webblinds/

So it's a small add-on, right? I don't want to have another seperate program besides windowblinds running all the time =\

It's just a few hundred K. Of course, the memory taken depends mostly on the skin used.
