Patch for Mozart on "Windows Vista"

[Wolfgang Meyer]

Seems to work fine.
I tested on a Vista installation within a virtual machine and tried 
Browse, Inspect, ExploreAll and the Prototyper application. Would be 
great if somebody could confirm this (just to be really sure).
Nice to see the patch applied to a release version!

Cheers,
  Wolfgang
