I too am using Mozilla on a windows system, and the theme > switching works fine without problems. As was metioned up-thread, this was disabled many moons ago due to bugs. It was re-enabled just after the 0.9.7 branch, and most of the resulting bugs have now been ironed out. There are still one or two left (e.g. http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115940) which are mostly pretty minor. The big exception is http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116038, which is probably the crash mark is seeing. -- gav
