Well after a heavy weekend of Vista messing (including Server) I tried
HotHTML 3 (yes, I know... what a nut aye?)... with FixPack 4 the first
thing you get after installation is the "Configuration Wizard" to show
up, and thats when i noticed that the checkbox had that horrible black
bar covers like XP caused when you try and use a manifest without
initialising Common Controls library first...

NOooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i yelled in disappointment. I've filed a
bug but its still early days yet, MS *might* fix it otherwise we'd have
to think of a work-around (after more research) to fixing it.
So in short,
if your vb6 application uses a manifest/themes and it shows correctly in XP, chances are in Vista (atm) it wont.
