Hey, could you make some basic close, minimize, and maximize buttons? Those would be awsome!! (I always get a cursor on top of the buttons that makes them light up when the mouse isn't really on the button... so, I need basic style... can you help me do this, please?)

^^ Although there isn't any problem without LSPatch, but the Start menu may look weird at the bottom....
I will try to solve that problem so that LSPatch isn't needed. When it will be ready, I will give it for download...

Although it is safe, but if something goes wrong, do this:
-Insert the Windows XP CD.
-Then open the task manager(ctrl+alt+delete) and go File->Run. -Choose to be able to open All files and locate the explorer.ex_ in the i368 folder.
-Rightclick it and open it with 7-Zip or Winrar or whatever you like.
-Extract explorer.exe to the Windows folder on your computer, and then go File->Run again and locate the explorer.exe and run it.
Problem solved!
Come'm, go try my VS...!

I am using this VS right now at home and was just going to d/l & install it here at work -- but I ain't messin' with the text remover. Thanks for the instructions; I'll print them in case I get brave....

Your VS looks good from the screenshot. I will try it soon. But is the text remover safe to use with a modded explorer.exe file? I used one before that really tore up my system, and I don't want to go thru that again. Thank you for sharing....
