You can avoid most of this crap by running WinMx in W98 emulation, and
disabling visual effects. All this can be done on the tabs of the
properties window that pops up when you rightclick on the exe file.
remember that WinMx is a W98 program that barely co-exists with XP.
Fuggeddabout Vista entirely.
