So far I realized two things that don't work under WM5.

1. The power status service doesn't get loaded. Probably because the service dll is not signed with a certificate.
2. Trying to enable ClearType doesn't work. Again, maybe the unsigned application cannot modify protected registry area. If this is true, changing other registry settings may not work, either.
3. Text for the "date" is cut off after the "Display Date on Task Bar" is enabled.

Anyone who has WM5 is welcome to give it a try. It won't hurt anything if not working. With the CAB file, this is easier to be removed if you don't want it.

Thanks.
