Looks like it might be a problem with naming... ie, tasks-0.92b.dll might need to be something along the lines of tasks-0.9.dll, or vice versa. Might want to check that the file names already existing in theme.rc (do a quick Ctrl-F on tasks, shortcut, hotkey, respectively) and see that the names in there match the actual file names of the *.dlls you have installed. If they're different, you probably want to rename the files, since there is a possibility the filename is referenced somewhere else, and you don't want to track down that entry in all the config files
Thanks. Things seem to be working ok now. Problem was, when I didn't have a module that a theme needed, it brought up a window where you could download the modules and have them automatically installed, but whenever I used it the system would hang, so I was trying to install them manually. Turns out the problem was with Download Accelerator (DAP). Something about it caused the system to freeze, because as soon as I reinstalled it, the modules downloaded and installed fine. I still think there's a problem with Explorer.exe because LiteStep uses it as the File Manager, and whenever I try to use it I get into trouble.
Does anyone know if there's a 3rd party program that can do what explorer.exe does in terms of navigating the file system, without acutually using explorer.exe. Please let me know & then I can finally be (more or less) free of the MicroSoft yoke.
