If you are using Visual Assist X build 1635 or above then you can tell Visual Assist X to use the "old" style thin listbox borders instead of the Vista style borders.

Simply change the following registry key:

HKCU \ Software \ Whole Tomato \ Visual Assist X \ VANet8 \ ListboxFlags = 2

Set this to 0 to return to the default behaviour, and the listboxes will appear with the Vista style borders.

1 is a reserved value and should not be used. Other bitwise values may be added in future builds.

Do not change this value in Visual Studio 2010
Replace "VANet8" with "VANet9" for Visual Studio 2008
Replace "VANet8" with "VANet" for Visual Studio 2003
Replace "VANet8" with "VA6" for Visual C++ 6

Note you need to close all IDE's before editing this registry key, to avoid Visual Assist X overwriting your change when it quits.
