KB943460 changed my "Windows Classic" style to "WindowsXP" style

WinXP with all updates, patches, etc in place.

After installing the KB943460 update and rebooting this morning, I found
that my "Windows Classic" style setup had been changed to the unctuous
"Windows XP" style.

This is not the first time an update has done this so I'm prepared: I keep
my themes in a separate backup folder on another hard disk so all I need do
is double-click on one to restore things to the way *I* want them.

It's a minor annoyance in other words but I do wish it would go away.

And neither can I; not consistently, it seems.

Something else must be going on here...
