RIGHT-CLICK HERE and go to Save As (in IE it's "Save Target As") in order to download the smitfraud reg to your desktop.

Double-click smitfraud.reg on your desktop. When asked if you want to merge with the registry click YES.

Right click on the desktop..select properties...desktop..customize desktop...web..and uncheck anything listed. Now highlight and delete any entry that says security..or anything other then the default "My Current Homepage". Leave that entry be.

Now click on "Theme's" and in the box select "Windows XP" theme and click apply. Then click on "Appearence" tab and make sure "Windows XP" is selected in the Windows and Buttons box.

If that doesn't work or Windows XP theme is missing....

Download the Luna theme from either of these sites:

http://users.pandora.be/bluepatchy/luna.zip
http://castlecops.com/zx/flrman1/luna.zip
http://www.greyknight17.com/spy/luna.zip
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs.../Resources.zip

Unzip it and MOVE the luna.msstyles which is present in that folder you unzipped to next folder: C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Luna
Don't move it to anywhere else other than that folder!

When moved it there, rightclick on your desktop > properties ... and look if Windows XP style is now present again. Choose apply and OK.

Reboot the PC

You should now be able to choose XP Theme for your desktop. Let me know the outcome.
