| | ===Desktop Window Manager and MIL=== |
| *This build, unlike many other leaked builds, is the first build to have complete Media Integration Layer (MIL) effects in Explorer and Internet Explorer from the [[Desktop Window Manager]], thanks to an early version of MILExplorer. However, a registry modification is required to extend the effect into the full UI of Explorer and Internet Explorer. The green translucent effect called "Jade" is used natively in this build instead of transparent "Glass". Further modifications such as a re-created <code>aero.msstyles</code> file is required to replace the Jade window frames with Glass ones. See the [[Windows Aero#Windows Longhorn builds 4074 to 4082|Windows Aero]] page for instructions on how to enable Aero effects. | | *This build, unlike many other leaked builds, is the first build to have complete Media Integration Layer (MIL) effects in Explorer and Internet Explorer from the [[Desktop Window Manager]], thanks to an early version of MILExplorer.

| | ===DWM themes=== |
| This build of Longhorn includes 2 types of DWM themes - Aero and non-Aero. The only Aero theme included in this build is the Jade theme, which may be used to draw translucent window borders with DWM turned on. The Aero Glass theme, commonly referred to as simply "Aero" was at that time still a private theme, hence it is not included in this build. | | This build of Longhorn includes 2 types of DWM themes - Aero and non-Aero.
