  1. Does it support colour settings in the theme, such as "Metallic" (Silver) in luna?

    it doesnt look like it, it works by just applying the theme file with a command line

    Applytheme Royale

    theme file must be in the Resources\Themes folder.

    You can set the theme to use Metallic though by editing the .theme file. You could edit it and install it using the $OEM$ style copying.

    In the theme file there is a section

    [VisualStyles]
    Path=%ResourceDir%\Themes\luna\luna.msstyles
    ColorStyle=NormalColor
    Size=NormalSize

    If you change the

    ColorStyle=NormalColor 
    to
    ColorStyle=Metallic

    then it will use the Metallic colour settings.

    Hope this helps

  2. dont preach your s***e to me, users shouldnt have to download external crap to make IE safe. It should be provided safe with no holes and crap in it. Firefox works fine for me and many others, thats why its used so much.

    Also I said the ActiveX blockers dont work very well, so you can take a leap off a cliff

  3. I thought it was relevant enough to post here since im testing my UA cds on VPC well trying. The problem is when I run a new VPC set to Windows XP and 128MB of RAM I mount the ISO and it does all its usual crap then on copying files at any point (different points everytime) it freezes the whole pc.

    I have to press the restart button, and most recently I rebooted and my firefox settings where wiped for some very strange reason (no favs or homepage etc).

    Anyone got any ideas why its crashing, Virtual PC 2004 btw. Is VMWare better?

  4. how can I force windows to defaultly use my style.theme - I tried to put in $$\Resources\Themes\ file "Windows Classic.theme", but it doesn't get default anyway - during logon - there is the real windows classic scheme...
    The path $$\Resources\Themes\ will copy the files to the corresponding folder on the drive. You need to set what theme you want to use in your Winnt.sif file.

    Below: YourTheme.theme being the one you have copied over in the folder.

    [SHELL]
    CustomDefaultThemeFile = "%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\YourTheme.theme"

    About local settings - how can I set my timezone and keyboard? I put in winnt.sif

    KeyboardLayout = "Czech (QWERTY)"

    but it doesn't seem to be working. I mean - after installation, the default keyboard is still English (US).

    You have spaces in your line, I think it needs no spaces so try the below under [uNATTENDED]

    KeyboardLayout="Czech"
    or
    KeyboardLayout="Czech (QWERTY)"

    Hope this helps

  5. Im not aware there is a way to add accounts in winnt.sif. The only way I know and have being successful with is using a .cmd or .bat. You could use the following in a .cmd to create the two accounts.

    ECHO Creating TheeBeets account..
    net user TheeBeets /add
    net localgroup Administrators TheeBeets /add
    net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited

    ECHO Creating Pat&Derek account..
    net user Pat&Derek /add
    net localgroup Administrators Pat&Derek /add
    net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited

    Dont know if this is any use to you, I had trouble understanding your question :unsure:

  6. I need some help, I have created a program called Registry Tweakage.net which includes hundreds of reg tweaks. Im currently working on a new version which has lots of improvements and fixes but I need to understand a few tweaks I have no idea what they do, if someone could explain what they do much appreciated. Also if they are needed or just crap :)

    ; Fix DSO Exploit
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0]
    "1004"=dword:00000003

    ; Remove Windows Alexa Spyware
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions\{c95fe080-8f5d-11d2-a20b-00aa003c157a}]

    ; Enable MP3 Encoding From Right-Click While Browsing
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding]
    "LowRate"=dword:0000dac0
    "MediumRate"=dword:0001f400
    "MediumHighRate"=dword:0003e800
    "HighRate"=dword:0004e200

    ; Mount Net-Drives First
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider]

    ; Disable Spying By Websites
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\ProtocolDefaults]
    "about"=dword:00000004

    Whats the difference between these 2, I thought they would do similar thing?

    ; Launch IE Browser In Seperate Processes
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\BrowseNewProcess]
    "BrowseNewProcess"="Yes"

    ; Disable IE Windows From Being Re-Used
