No, sorry I don't use the web browser control in my VB app.

I think my problem i really rare, so don't waste time on it, but if
someone is interested:

It's a straight VB app with a number of 6.4 controls (along with 9
controls too) embedded. Very straight forward. The only web related
thing the app does is to start a web browser through instantiating a
web browser to send the user to a particular site (and that doesn't
seem to trigger this behavior).

And I still have the "problem" discribed above, sometimes when I start
my development environment (or rather while I'm developing) I get the
6.4 look and somtimes the 9 look of the WMP control. I don't se any
pattern in how this happens. I get a feeling some of the propoerties I
set at design time in the 6.4 for control gets lost when it changes to
the 9 look, but as far I've seen this doens't affect my app (but
probalby that just luck).

I noticed I had two versions of the 6.4 on my box so I've cleaned out
all and reinstalled wmp9. Let's se if that does it!

Or perhaps it's teh mix of 4.6 and wmp 9 in the same app that does
this (allthough I find that a bit unlikely).

Thanks
