Tito --
The only thing that comes to mind is that I have seen and we have posted on
this and the general group a few apps that will "disarm" the Vista Theme and
Aero Glass as well:
Nero does it for me. If I open up and use Nero it works fine--and I can
make 6.0 work great on Vista--I'm using the latest 7+ now, and I've seen
remote assistance apps applied to Vista boxes do the same thing.
Perhaps the same moves that make Aero Glass usually stick will also keep the
Vista theme in line. Also I Imagine you know that you have to have a
certain Video Card requirement to use AG --but any of them should support
the Vista theme. I've gotten the Vista theme using a 32MB card on one
machine before I upgraded my Vid cards.
