That's really strange, I have no explanation for that as there is no Service Pack 3 for Vista, and it's totally incorrect 6.0.6001 is SP1; here's how it should read. Have you made any changes in the registry?

Ghosts in the machine perhaps? :shock:

Sorry, lame attempt at a joke :o

About the only thing I can think off is that you have installed something that made that change? perhaps one of those "Cool Vista Themes" or any other freeware that we have all tried once or twice as soon as we install vista. ;)
