[Qt-interest] QDialog on Vista hides buttons

I had many issues with button visibility in QWizard on Vista 64. For
aesthetic reasons, and also so I don't pull my hair out, I set the
wizard style to classic style. That solved all of my issues, as well as
giving me a much nicer looking wizard. I haven't tested my current
application on XP yet, but I'm confident this will give my application a
consistent appearance across platforms as well.
