^^ i got the cabs from a thread over at xda which was linked from the thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467230
coulda have been bad cab files or even the manila version i was using at the time. who knows?? its weird though cuz i would have never guessed it woulda messed with calendar seeing as that manilla files are just that manilla files and i thought would have no correlation to calendar.exe in the windows folder
