Curious, it wouldn't have anything to do with LogonStudio Vista would it?

Okay, maybe another issue has come up. Now when Windows 7 boots, the login screen loads normally, but the display picture and password box load after an abnormally long delay, this has only begun since I updated to WB 7.0.1

I've applied the 7.0.1 update for WindowBlinds, and that has resolved my issue. Explorer no longer crashes when desktop composition is disabled, great. :) It's only been 10 minutes though, so if anything does come up I'll post it here. Edit: If Desktop Composition is Disabled, explorer seems to become slow, as in long delays when trying to open My Computer. Otherwise everything is A-OK, composition on or off.

Yes, I'm running Firefox, but can you explain how this could possibly resolve any issues? Because there's no way I'm about to uninstall Firefox just like that, however gingerly.

Windowblinds just crashed on me after changing skins and closing it. It might be related, it might not, but here's the crash details.

I applied the Corporate Skin and encountered no problem. But as soon as I disable desktop composition (which treats Window effects more like XP), the same problems occur. Looks like that was the culprit, as I always disable desktop composition for working in Flash.

Well, I can't stop using WindowBlinds now, I just love using Luna Element too much. I bet these explorer crashes could be fixed with a minor update though. I've noticed that if I set my skin to work ontop of Windows Aero, instead of Windows Classic (which I'd prefer), then the thumbnail/flip 3d crashes stop. I'll have to see if the other crashes still happen though. edit: disabling desktop composition seems to be prone to causing instability too, something I need to do

Well, now the problem has evolved. Since today's windows update, explorer still crashes, but it crashes differently. Now instead it displays a "Windows has crashed" error and allows you to restart, rather than becoming unresponsive. The error is also becoming more frequent, and the fault is directly coming from WBLIND.dll I can tell what causes the taskbar to crash now, it's thumbnail previews. It is also possible to crash windows by trying to u

I can say I notice minor graphical glitches with my cursor too, like when mousing over links the cursor appears to distort and stretch, sometimes be miscoloured. But no flat over cursor freezing.

I recently upgraded to Windows 7 and WindowBlinds 7, and been enjoying it. My skin of choice is Luna Element 5.1 Black , and using the MSstyle converter the skin looks amazing on Win7, despite being designed for WinXP. Unfortunately though, it occasionally causes explorer.exe to crash, this is not limited to one system either, both my desktop PC and laptop are effected. Specifically, sometimes the taskbar
