You can force the dxtheme file to open with DesktopX by right clicking on the file and selecting "Open With" > and chosing DX. If it's not there, select the "Choose Program" option. (WindowsXP)

Some programs you can edit the resources with a program called Resource Hacker. Can't remember the link off the top of my head, but you can try to do a google search for it. There are some good tutorials around the net. Do a search for WinT for those. Make sure you do your homework if you choose to use this program. If you don't use it correctly you can screw up the program, or the system.

jlaj1989: check out Brad's tutorial on creating a widget. It uses WMI to poll disk space usage. Find it here: https://www.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?AID=67611 Read that, and then look at the code Script-o-Matic creates. Study the differences between the two and you should be able to do whatever you want with WMI

A good tool to browse through your WMI is wbemtest.exe (c:\windows\system32\wbem\wbemtest.exe, I think it's only in xp pro). There are some good tutorials on the net but Microsoft has some too: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/wbemtest_93qs.mspx Don't forget to read up on Script-o-Matic

The only conflict I've noticed with FF and WB is the title bars occationally don't get skinned upon opening FF. This can be fixed by maximizing the window. Havnen't seen any other problems. I'm actually suprised how much I'm starting to like FF. It's a pretty nice browser.

ADD A SHORT CUT KEY TO MINIMIZE A WINDOW! Winkey+down or something simple. Its small but it would make me really happy. With the window selected press Alt+Spacebar and then the 'n' key. Granted, the winkey+down would be a LOT easier.
