Free Makichan Tex Viewer for Windows

The free WIndows Tex Viewer from Makichan - their "Scientific Viewer" - amused me today. Here is a screenshot:


Note the jagged mossy-green around the white background of the text.  That lovely green is my Windows preference for a default background in any window where the code does not set the background.

In some other Tex documents it became just nasty.

For many weeks this was also the case at www.qtask.com - one CSS setting missing.  Oh vey.

Remember when C programming for Windows began with the bare Frame?  Now we have both alpha-settings and this sort of silliness.

Where does user acceptance testing go wrong in these cases?  The testers don't know Windows?
