maybe you rebooted to quickly ?
after applying the patch XP throws up a file protection error
this can take upto a minute to appear & hides itself behind the uxtheme patch gui
now thats its gone wrong you will have to delete the uxtheme.bak file before trying again
wait for the file protection error to appear behind the uxtheme patch gui ~ which will ask you for the XP cd - click no - then it asks do you want to keep this unrecognised file ~ click yes
then reboot
