Yes that's the problem I am having.
and no is isn't checked.
From what I understand on the Microsoft website, it has something to do with
Active Desktop.
Once you activate Active Desktop, no telling how you can get the
transparency to work.
Appreciate your help.
It wouldn't be such a problem having those little annoying boxes, but I use
'Webshots' wallpaper...
and the scenes are gorgeous!
Thanks,
Dorie
