You might also want to check and make sure the netLoad lines are directing to the appropriate module version.
Another thing - are you behind a software firewall? If so, there have been some issues with that. Might even be a hardware firewall causing the problem.

You can find what modules are being downloaded in the theme.rc file. To view this, open up notepad (assuming youre on windows XP or 98), make sure you open "all files" and go to your theme directory :
C:/LiteStep/Profiles/yourname/themes/themename/them.rc
scroll down until you see "*netLoad" a bunch of times, and make sure you have all the modules listed.
Keep in mind, if youre on windows 98 or 95, there may be some compatibility issues (maybe even with ME). Some modules use "true" transparency, and cannot work on 98 or 95.
You may also be getting a bunch of errors about variables that are "undefined." Is this the case? If so, which variables (or, a few if there are a bunch).
Other than these issues, most Themes will work normally. You may have downloaded a corrupt zip file, which means you might not have downloaded it from this site (even some of the zips here are bad archives, though).
Please, take your time when you write back. Be very specific on the errors you are getting. This will help us find exactly what is wrong, and we can answer your question directly.
