The owner of TGTSoft and StyleXP never packaged his products with bloatware or anything else like that Phoon. The people who purchased the ThemeXP web site from him started the packaging
I wasn't aware that somebody else was doing this bundling thing on ThemeXP... still, it was a pain in the bum and there were some packaged themes which crashed StyleXP and sometimes brought the whole system down... eg, BSOD. I know it wasn't the proogie itself as I'd used it without issue, but new themes were always going to be an issue and that's why I ended up with ODNT [before TGTSoft went guts up] to take away the Fisher Price look of XP. Eeeew, that was awful... given what WB can do.
BTW, Tom, I had most of your MSStyles until just recently.... no point keeping them now the proggie is dead, though I did convert them [for personal use] using Skinstudio. However, I see that you have been updating them to WB's yourself and, as you do, I've deleted them because your WB's are obviously gonna be superior to my feeble attempt at conversion. Keep up the good work. matey. you've done some real pearlers.
