Terry is absolutely right here, this is one of MS's major blunders.
This DLL came about when the thier Xcel (or some product like that)
team re-designed the standard UI template, and the MS brass liked it
so much they said "this shalt be the new standard." Interestingly
enough the UI was totally re-designed a year later for Windows 95.
