Glad you found something that works. I go out of my way to make mine more like XP as I do not like the Aero themes or other bloatware M$ tries to set as a default setting. I have and use classic user interfaces for everything and turn off large icons for Windows Explorer views, as I just need "Details". Here's my desktop, and this is as fancy as mine gets as usually I just have a stark black background without a picture. I always turn everything to smallest icons and the only gripe is it seems since XP M$ tries to reduce the screen resolution you can set. I used to use 1600x1200 on a 15" monitor and now with the 24" + monitors you can't even get close to that unless you are running an after market video card. On my Presario laptop the best resolution I can get is 1366x768...
