I used to use Flyakiteosx, and I really liked it. Before I go into this, you can read my previous post regarding flyakiteosx, or, heres a quick summary of what it does, right off flyakiteosx.com

FlyakiteOSX is a transformation pack. It will transform the look of an ordinary Windows XP+ system to resemble the look of Mac OS X. The installer simply automates the process of replacing critical system files, setting registry tweaks, and installing extras such as cursors, sounds, visual styles, etc. FlyakiteOSX DOES NOTcontain any spyware or ad-ware of any kind. All files needed for FlyakiteOSX are stored in the Windows directory in a folder named 'FlyakiteOSX' that is hidden by default. All registry values for FlyakiteOSX are written to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FlyakiteOSX.

What I liked about this program, is that it did everything for me, really quickly, and made everything look nice. The alternative to flyakiteosx, is going all over the web, downloading a bunch of tools. When someone puts it like this, the best choice is obvious, as it was for me. Anyway, the program was great, before it drove me to completely reset my computer all the way back to how it was when it came out of its box. Basically, at one point, flyakiteosx just stopped loading, messed up all my services, and lagged my computer. In addition to flyakiteosx not loading, I could not change the theme of my computer at all, and was forced to use the Windows Classic theme (yeah, I couldn't even use the blue windows default theme). It probably did some other terrible things, but I have tried to forget.

Possible Reasons Why

If this has happened to you, chances are you either installed Microsoft Office 2007, or installed MagicISO and its mounting utility, MagicDisc. I think that Office 2007 is a possibility, because, well, it all happened right after I installed it and restarted my computer. Noticing this, I tried to uninstall Office 2007, with no success. The uninstallation always failed. I could uninstall flyakiteosx, and did so, but the problem still remained. Using the computer became quite difficult. It seems that flyakiteosx alters system files for Office 2003, and I guess those interfere with what Office 2007 tries to put in place, messing things up. If you can find a way, get rid of both programs.

I also mentioned that MagicISO with MagicDisc could also end up doing this to your computer, be sure to uninstall this, and upon your next restart, things may be back to normal. In fact, after I wiped my computer and tried to use this program (without flyakiteosx, or Office 2007), the program screwed my computer the same way it did before I wiped my computer.

So… before you go and get that recovery CD and lose all your work, try to uninstall all of these programs, reboot, and see if things go back to normal.

Hope this helps!
