Bug Description
Drag and Drop doesn't work on Windows Vista/7/8(?) due to User Interface Privilege Isolation (http://
Need to add tests for Windows Vista and Windows 7+ and execute ChangeWindowsMe

Ran some extensive tests using ChangeWindowMes sageFilter and ChangeWindowMes sageFilterEx in separate apps. While I can get the status to change for an area and pass messages from a separate unprivileged app, I cannot get drag and drop to work without having the program launch a separate 'dropzone' applet. This is pretty ugly code and makes for an ugly UI.
Postponing for a bit and dropping the priority.
