This is correct.  I include the gtkthemeselector.exe in the Windows 
installer so that you can try different themes with ease.  Here is what 
you do:

   1.  From the Windows "Start Menu" go to the "Mono 1.1.x for Windows"
      menu and select  "Mono 1.1.x Command Prompt"
   2. At the prompt, type:

             "gtkthemeselector" and press enter.

Hope this helps.

Paco
