Windowblinds and IE8 tab problem

Published on March 23, 2009 By peterd In WindowBlinds

I've just installed IE8, and am having an issue with Windowblinds. If I open a picture in a tab and then i right-click the picture to save it, the file save dialog box is sometimes corrupted. See here

Sometimes it comes out properly like this:

If i unload Windowblinds, or select the microsoft default Windows Aero skin, it will always work fine.

Please help!!!

Is IE8 even offically supported yet?

I don't believe that IE 8 is officially supported yet, all though I use it on an XP system and have not experienced this problem.

Do you guys mean supported by Stardock? I'm not sure about that, how can one check?

This issue doesn't seem to affect my XP box, just Vista

I have a setup here very similar to your own, and am not able to reproduce this. Are there specific conditions other than what you described that cause this to happen every time?
