Theme Windows Vista OS-X-Style with Vista OS X [Featured Windows Vista Download] » Lifehacker, tips and downloads for getting things done says, April 8th, 2008   

[...] Windows Vista only: Windows XP users with a serious Mac crush have FlyakiteOSX to make their desktop resemble, if not work like, a Mac, but Vista users—even those upgraded to Service Pack 1—now have Vista OS X for a similar OS paint job. The installer (unfortunately) requires that you disable User Account Control to move forward, but you’ll get screensavers, wallpapers, a “Dock,” and more goodies, all accessible from the basic “Themes” menu. The gHacks blog states that the theme completely uninstalls itself when you’re ready to move back to Windows; I haven’t tried it myself, so let us know your experiences in the comments.

About an hour after I installed this, Windows Defender ran a quick scan and found a Trojan.Dumper. I confirmed this later with ClamWin Anti-Virus. This is the first virus I’ve had in over a year, so I’m pretty darn sure it came from this download. Especially since the Trojan was located in the Install Shield directory under Program Files. First time gHacks has, potentially, let me down. Otherwise no harm was done and the rest of the site’s content is awesome, keep up the good work.

Martin says, April 9th, 2008   

James did you check the setup file or program directory ? What was the name of the virus ? Maybe it was a false positive ? Can you post the log ?

Martin says, April 9th, 2008   

I did redownload the file and scanned it with AVG and it did not find a virus. Do you still have the installer on your system ?

ranger_cole says, April 9th, 2008   

I also found trojan with this download. windows defender found it.

Martin says, April 9th, 2008   

As I said it might be a false positive

Sound Rock!!! I’m testing it now.. Let see what would happen. It’s Winmac VistaX.

dboi says, April 13th, 2008   

AVG didn’t detect the trojan but Windows defender did. I went ahead with it anyway (and probably regret doing it, not because of the ‘virus’ but what happened).

Things messed up during the installation and a system restore point was not created. So I had to go back through another restore point, which meant removing Vista SP1 altogether and reinstalling it.

AT says, April 14th, 2008   

hi dboi. I had the same problem, the programm didnt create a restore point and now, I can’t either remove vista os x totally from my computer nore i can’t setup the osx theme and my sidebar and taskbar are grey and i cant change it. please help…

Kitsune says, April 15th, 2008   

In my opinion. This is horrible. The help didn’t even help me. To uninstall, it told me to go to the vista os x folder. What God Damned Folder? In Windows/Resources/Themes ? In Program Files? Now Im stuck with this theme, and can’t get rid o it with system restore. ‘Safe Installer’ my arse!

Mattay says, April 17th, 2008
