DreamScene bug report

Hi,

Can someone please point out where I can report bugs in Windows
Vista? Here are the details:

1) Install DreamScene
2) Set the desktop background to vid1337.mpg (the default animation
that comes with it)
3) Maximize a window
4) Either click on the "Show Desktop" icon many times fast or keep
WindowsKey+D down
5) The bug is that the background animation flickers. Whenever "Show
Desktop" is invoked the first frame of the animation displays for a
split second before the correct frame is rendered and the animation
resumes where it left off.
6) Expected behavior: the animation should resume where it left off
and not display the first frame

This is reproducible 100% of the time on my machine. It is easier
to spot if you use another video as your background where the
difference between the first frame and other frames are far more
noticeable.

Try here:

Since these are peer to peer newsgroups, there is no expectation or
requirement that Microsoft see your post.
