Rainmeter's black background in a virtual window. The black border is also
evident on the desktop.

I have looked throughout the database to find one or two workable programs
similar to this bug. I will list them here within this bug report as no listed
bug specificly deals with Rainmeter's issue.

Rainmeter is a program which displays various GUI elements within Windows,
featuring system information neatly displayed in a varying array of skinned
elements, whether they be text, abstract graphic, anime, or otherwise.

The program installs itself with no issue. The skin loads given the nature and
workaround of bug 18142, a GDIPLUS-related issue in which Winetricks will
install. 

The problem is presented upon actually having loaded a skin. The background
appears to be virtually black, and upon changing the program's transparency
from an option within Rainmeter, the black background also changes transparency
with the skin, allowing the wallpaper behind it to show through.

When initially clicking on the window, the black background goes transparent
for a half a second or so and then reprints the black background. Also, no
matter if you're using Compiz or Kwin under KDE 4.2.2, this is a problem
persisting in it's existance.

10091 is a similar bug to this, but this problem persists under Kwin as already
stated. Secondly, the bug also exists regardless whether or not Rainmeter is
loaded within a virtual window.
