As the module's loaded early on, you need to use the recovery console to get it installed. Just copy it into c:\windows\system32 as uxtheme.dll.patch or similar, then boot up recovery console (from your windows setup cd if you haven't installed it yourself) and rename uxtheme.dll to uxtheme.dll.bak, rename uxtheme.dll.patch to uxtheme.dll.
Then just copy the themes into c:\windows\resources\themes.
The .msstyles files go into a directory with the same name as the file (ie SS.msstyles goes into c:\windows\resources\themes\SS), and the .theme files go into c:\windows\resources\themes.
et voila! (OK, using the recovery console's a pain. Perhaps you could do it in safe mode, I'm not sure)
