well, i'm using geoshell as a replacement for the windows shell, which provides the bars (includes menus, systray, and email auto-checker) and i'm also using coolmon for the dynamic info on the desktop (system stats, winamp title etc). my wan ip (i'm using a NAT router, is from a little vb program specifically written for my network, and outputs to a text file, which coolmon picks up - i'm proud of that lol).

Is it safe to use?
I don't want to download it and have to re-format my computer like stylexp did to me 🙁

ah well style xp is shockingly bad, i agree - personally i edited my uxtheme.dll using a hex editor, and now i can use themes no problem - but geoshell isn't quite the same thing, it doesn't just 'skin' windows, it replaces your desktop interface. make sure you know what you're doing (it's not that hard once you've read up on it a bit) and you'll be fine. to make sure, i'd recommend ShellOn, it's a shell selector program which is v good.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. 🙁

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
