Additional notes

Downloading more themes - We're expecting an explosion of sites offering Windows 7 themes when Windows 7 is released. As with all downloads, care must be taken as some less reputable sites have been known to bundle spyware or other malware in with their downloads. Be careful to read any end user license agreement and also run an up to date antivirus package.
