The beauty of freeware is that it is accessible to everyone. We don’t have to worry about piracy, because we encourage everyone to download and enjoy it. 
One of the downsides of freeware is that you have to put a lot of time and effort into developing an application, and though we appreciate all the great feedback, it’s very likely that the costs will only increase. Here are a few things you guys can do to help us to continue our work and provide you with new and improved applications.
OpenCandy: good recommendations instead of a pesky toolbar
When you install VistaGlazz or PixelCryptor a component called OpenCandy will 
show you an interesting download compatible with your system. We are very concerned with the software we bundle with our applications and we make sure that it is in no way spyware or other forms of malware. You can support us by choosing to install one of these utilities.

A few hours ago I’ve released the new version of VistaGlazz 1.2. I noticed that some of our users still encounter the You have to reboot before you can use VistaGlazz-screen. For these users and other users that encounter problems with VistaGlazz I’ve created the Diagnostic screen.
How to use the Diagnostic screen
- Get the latest version of VistaGlazz (released 5min ago): VistaGlazzSetup.exe
- Run the program with the -diag commandline argument
- You’ll get a Diagnostic form instead of the normal VistaGlazz window
- Hit the Diagnose button and have a look at the output
The easiest way to set the commandline argument is to edit the VistaGlazz shortcut on your Desktop. Rightclick the shortcut and modify the Target field, add -diag after the command (after the last “). To run it normally remove the -diag again.
I hope this is of help to you. Feel free to post the diagnose output on the forum, with the additional information it should be easier for us to assist you.
After a long and very satisfying trip we’re back in The Netherlands. Our main focus now is on a small update to VistaGlazz, making it even a bit more stable and we hope to introduce Vista SP2 compatibility very soon.
Update May 6th: for everyone who has the VistaGlazz keeps asking me to reboot problem. Please try the latest version from our website. In the reboot screen you’ll have a Problems? button that will aid you with that error.
I also noticed on YouTube and other websites that a lot of people still click on the first icon, reboot and then the second icon to patch both their system and their msstyle. Check the help, I threw a gimmick into 1.1. You can start by clicking on the patch style button and VistaGlazz will ask you if you want to patch everything at once.
