ahh i c

none of the other programs expired.. they are working fine.

Then wouldn't it tell me that it was expired?

Well like I had said before, I don't get that far. I install it and it constantly says I have to reboot. That is as close as I get to either a "nag" screen or "countdown splash screen". Everything works except for WindowBlinds. I never even reached a total of 60days on the trial. It just doesn't work.

I've looked everywhere on Stardocks site and I see nothing that states the demo's stop working after say 30 days. I had installed the programs as individuals, there was no demo for Object Desktop.

No, I actually had the demo a couple months ago and removed it only after a few days. I do believe you misunderstood me. Everything else seemed to work fine (theme manager, desktop x, etc.)

Yes, I turned Norton off completely. WB (Object Desktop) was purged completely (I pulled all folders and reg keys that the installer didn't remove after uninstall and reboot) I had the trial a few months ago and had removed it (before trial ended) due to insufficient memory. This time around its been installed for a whole day.

I never (purposely) deleted this folder. It just disappeared after uninstalling Object Desktop. I didn't realize this until Windows started acting up. Restoring this folder is essential for Windows to function properly. Fuzzy Logic said it best "If you want to delete useless crap from Windows, type "format c". I'd say buy a Mac!

I have uninstalled/reinstalled WindowBlinds (v. 5.10), disabled "tamper protection" in Norton AntiVirus and still will not run. Skin "AlienwareXenoMorph" will not load completely and has permanently replaced the Recylce Bin icon! I am running the demo versions and they will not update (ThemeManager actually updated). Is there a problem with the install or is the demo not functioning? Do I need

Thanks! I will keep that as a last resort.

I had unistalled Stardock products (Theme Manager, etc.) and now I have none of the original themes that came with XP (only the classic themes are available). Can someone tell me how to restore these themes?
