does anyone know how I can patch Windows Vista home premium's
uxtheme.dll, shsvcs.dll en themeui.dll files
I want to use a OS X leopard visual style but I can't now
and manually I can't patch them, I only get a error I don't have premmisions to
replace the files and I can't chage the premmisions

go to youtube and search for videos of this thing, thats how I learned how to do it =)
Even better, do this!
1.Go to Start>Accessories>Command Prompt
2. right click, run as administrator.
3. type in 'takeown /f C:\directory\filename' (without the quotes.
4. That's it. You took ownership of that file.
ok....so i am having the same problem too. I tried what you said to do and it is still not letting me delete the file and replace it with the patched one. Any idea how to do this?
I'm not sure, but if file is currently under use, you won't be able to replace it at all (even if you have the right rights to do it) (oh, a word puzzle, sorry). Try using replacer (google, first result 
) though it seems it doesn't support Vista just 2000 and XP (I dunno really).
ok, i figured it out finally. So, what I did was go to Command Prompt, what "system folder" said to do (above) and i add .old after the file name. Then, I add the hacked file to the folder and then restart the computer and boom, it's done. I had to look around online but i finally figured it out. Thanks, my system looks really good now
