WindowBlinds crashes explorer

from WinCustomize Forums
I am a bit confused here. I recently reinstalled windows after a reformat, and some upgrades. Windows XP Pro. I had been using Windowblinds 5 for a long time, but decided to up that to 6.1 as well. That strange part, is that no matter which skin I choose, whenever I click a file menu option in Windows Explorer, ie. File, Edit, View etc. except Favorites, Windows Explorer crashes, and restarts. It's very annoying. I turned off windowblinds, and everything is fine. Anyone have any ideas?

Re-install WindowBlinds and then open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on "System info" then click the "Copy text" button. Paste that info here.

I had already tried re-installing, got fed up and figured I would do that, and now I figure I should ask for help before dumping it and going back to v5.

Yes I do. Is there a conflict there? I am running the latest driver, 175 something. I went thru all the settings but not knowing what to really look for, I didn't change anything.
