<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Leaked screenshots of the next iteration of Windows often showed a greenish wallpaper with a crossword like puzzle and the message “shhh… Let’s not leak our hard work”.

The wallpaper is purported to be from the latest Windows 8 M3 build, that was made available to select OEMs via Microsoft Connect last week. <img alt="windows-8-m3-screen-shot" border="0" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijLGB8ffQ7nW3DGa_wSi6t1MwStVfzG-nAPRuYa5AJp_Row9sipI7kkUExNSP0BCjy7ntFtX-MUMy6GmOBan4R8pHFk-7pEgaTM-I7fY7xtTvmbccAVZQUFxpJtOrQ-99be7noDspz0VVK/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="windows-8-m3-screen-shot" width="550" /> That the wallpaper is real can be verified from the screenshot above that the individual in question sent to the ZDnet blogger. <a href="http://i.zdnet.com/blogs/windows-8-m3-wallpaper.jpg">Download the full sized wallpaper</a>.</div>

20 (most) beautiful themes for Windows XP

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Do you know what I hate most about Windows XP? It's look. It's painful combination of blue and green. So one of the first thing I do after every Windows install is patch the <a href="http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/OS-Enhancements/UXTheme-MultiPatcher.shtml" target="_blank">Uxtheme</a> file so that I can apply a visual style of my choice. I hope you are not using the default theme, are you? The following is a list of some of the choicest visual styles that can give Windows XP a total makeover. Pick any! Note: This list contains only shell styles that can be applied directly by patching Uxtheme or through <a href="http://www.tgtsoft.com/prod_sxp.php" target="_blank">StyleXP</a>.

Download and install <a href="http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/OS-Enhancements/UXTheme-MultiPatcher.shtml">Uxtheme patcher</a>. During install a message will be displayed that important Windows file are being replaced and will ask you to insert the windows CD to fix it. Just ignore and click "continue" 2. Download the theme pack and copy the folder containing .msstyles and shellstyle.dll (this is inside another folder) to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\ 3. After this is done, right-click on desktop and click Properties. Now click on the Appearance tab. Under Windows and Buttons you will find the list of all the themes you installed. Select one from the list and click Apply. Sometimes, the downloaded pack contains additional utilites like Styler and Rocketdock etc to bring other changes to Windows. It's up to you whether you want to install the additional stuff. You can visit the original page of the theme author for more instruction on how to use those.</div>
