Memory Read Error on Applying Skin

Hi,

I don't know what the problem is because I did not have this problem the first time I installed the Skin Studio/WindowBlinds combo.  It simply worked fine on the first install.  However I changed a lot of my hardware (including my graphics card) and I uninstalled both SS and WB to make sure there were no problems while I was getting my new hardware set up.  It is not my hardware that is the problem though.  I switched back to my original graphics card and the problem persisted.

Here is the problem I get:

When I apply a skin, it tried to load it after I click "Apply."  Soon after, before it completely gets loaded I get a memory read error.  After I acknowledge that, my explorer.exe crashes.  It won't let me restart explorer.exe until I switch back to a default windows theme (Aero).  I have absolutely no idea what the problem is.

Here's some stuff from the "About WB" box:

Your computer has a Windows Experience Index base score of 5.9
Your Windows Graphics Experience score is 7.3

WindowBlinds version : WindowBlinds 7.42 (325 - Windows 7 Edition) - 64 bit OS

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I do use COMODO.

That's the issue then.  WB 7.x is not compatible with Comodo on 64 bit OSes, but WB 8 (in beta) is.

Oh wow.  Well I think i'll try for the beta then.  I am NOT giving up my 2-way firewall XD

Thanks for the quick help!
