uxtheme.dll?

[thealexweb]

I've seen that its possible to have a real Vista like interface (see below), and I won't to know how it is done. I heard it has something to do with uxtheme.dll file. Do you just paste your copy from vista over the top of xp's version. Or do you need another different file or programme.

Please help!

Uxtheme Multi-patcher will allow you to use any 3rd party msstyle theme on Windows XP/SP1/SP2 or Windows Server 2003 (with Themes enabled) just by patching the uxtheme.dll (dynamic link library).
