I have a quick question concerning the patch for visual styles.  I had a problem with my p.c. and had to do a recovery, it wasn't a total destructive one however.  What I want to know is in order to use a visual style do I have to re-apply the patch or does it remain in file.  Can someone let me know, I'd really appreciate it!!

Here's a quick tip for ya , try to open some visual styles and if you are able to apply them without any problem then you don't need to re-patch , if the visual styles are not applied then go for the patch
