Version: WindowBlinds 5.1
"Take CAUTION When Using Such Programs."
Pros: AMAZING themes for your pc. Great program for having a VERY attractive PC . lots of customization to icons . mouse cursors etc. YOU COULD CHANGE YOUR WHOLE PCS LOOK!!!!......but......
Cons: the main program why i give this program a 2/5 is becuase when i UNISTALLED the program . MY starup changed to the old old style , i could not change it. my boot section also was'nt appearing . i had the old icons . my mouse changed , heaps of weird things happend after I unistalled this program. i started to recive more errors and some windows were not starting up. eventually caused me to FORMAT my whole pc. IF YOU EVER DO INSTALL THIS PROGRAM MAKE SURE YOU STICK WITH IT.! othorwise , dont even try it.

Your claims that the application uses the safest route by reverting sounds really good ~ and legit!
Why don't you address the main issue?
There is many validated complaints as to it slowing a system down, and in some case even making it freeze!
This is the issue that a publisher should be addressing!
the virus killer isn't a computer newbie; I am confident that he knows how to apply visual themes to his computer!
Address the real issue before you start losing a customer base with your argent presumptions!
- Publisher's reply:
When you uninstall WindowBlinds 5.1, it will set your desktop look and feel to Windows classic. If you wish to have the Blue "Luna" experience, simply open up display properties, choose appearance and select "Windows XP style".
The uninstall program doesn't know which option users would prefer and chose the safer route of picking classic.

The program seriously messes with your PC. Startup programs won't run or freeze. Most alarming is the fact that Windows Explorer would not run and I would get error messages. Thankfully I was able to utilize system restore.
