Default theme setting is not saved -- stays 'Classic' after changing to another

Hullo.

First of all, thanks for a great free gallery!  :D

My stuff:
Windows 2003
Reactor Server (Apache 2.0.54, MySQL 5.0.18, PHP 5.1.2)
Coppermine 1.4.8

The problem:
I'm using CPG in russian, so the names of places and settings may be different...
On the "Configuration" page i open the "Themes settings" section and change the first setting in this section (called "Theme") from "Classic" to "Water drop". After that i scroll down and press "Save new configuration". Then i look into "Themes settings" and see that "Theme" is still set to "Classic".

The question:
How do i change the default theme of my CPG?

What i tried to do:
Actually, i have nothing to do. I tried deleting cookies, it didn't do anything. When a user changes his theme, it is remembered all right. But when a guest visits my CPG, he sees only "Classic" theme until he changes it manually. I also tried deleting all themes except the one i want and switching files between folders of two themes: "Classic" and the one i want. Either of that broke the CPG, so i had to revert the files.

Please, help me solve this problem. And thank you for devoting me your time and attention.

PS The CPG is hosted on a LAN server in our ISP's server room. This server has no access to the web, so i cannot supply you with a test account :(

PPS I've downloaded a nice theme ("Kubrick"), but when i tried it, there was a codepage problem: Unicode was treated as a 8-bit codepage (you know, this P°P°P°P°P° stuff). Is that a problem of a single theme or a major problem?

PPPS Sorry :( I got some more quick questions.
1) How do i let users delete and move their own images that they've uploaded to public galleries?
2) How do i limit random and recent thumbs to 4 instead of 8? I failed to find such a setting.
3) And, umm... is there an IRC chat channel for CPG where users may ask such quick questions?
