More information

Desktop Themes, included in Microsoft Plus! for Windows 95, is designed to work with a JPEG filter called Jpegim32.flt. When you install Microsoft Office 2000, a new version of the Jpegim32.flt JPEG filter is installed, replacing the old Jpegim32.flt.

Because of the way in which the old Themes.exe program calls the JPEG filter, Themes.exe causes an invalid page fault if the new Jpegim32.flt filter is installed.
