    The same thing has happened to me and to others so it seems to be a common bug. It only seems to happen in the All Windows Forms group.

    Looks like you're using a skinning program like WindowBlinds (Love that app!). Perhaps try disabling it?

    I very much doubt that that will work. I haven't chaned any of the visual elements of XP and I've got almost the exact same issue: most, but not quite all, of the icons in All Windows Forms section displaying the same image with the transparency around the edge removed. I'm just in the process of installing VS 2005 SP1, which has just been released, so maybe that will be one of the issues addressed.

    I find it kind of hilarious myself, mine has been doing it for awhile. I thought it was restricted to only the "All Windows Forms" section, but it's broken through recently to my "Common" section as you can see from my attached picture.

    Me too!
    What worries me, is that bug was in the Beta, and was known.
    Which means they did'nt fix a known bug before release.

    I wonder if the service pack helps.

    It appears not. I guess they consider it a low priority.

    ERrrrrg.
    I'd hate to see the list of things considered high priority. lol
    Or things not on a list.

    Thanks for the heads up.
    So is there any good/bad things to say about 2005 SP1?
