TortoiseStub is a simple stub dll which itself will call TortoiseSVN.dll
when necessary. Its job is to *not* load the 'full' dll if the option
"show icon overlays only in explorer" is set and it is loaded by another
application, e.g., with the File-Open dialog.

I'm not sure why it didn't work for you on W7 right away - I've tried it
on two different W7 setups and it worked both times without any problems.
