    Cool Changing Win XP taskbar w/ vb?

    Hey, I want to change the color of my Windows XP home taskbar. The start button can stay green, but I want to change the taskbar, and taskbar buttons from blue to Orange. I there a way I can do this with an API call or something? Windows only lets you choose between Olive green, blue, and Silver. I want Orange!

    Can't I use?

    Setsyscolors and Getsyscolors API? Can someone post an example of this? I want to change each thing individually. The Win API guide shows how to do it as an array, and that is kind of confusion. Any help appreciated.

    The taskbar is a set of images. It is not an object per se.
    Need to re-register ASP.NET?
    C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v#VERSIONNUMBER#\aspnet_regiis -i

    (Edit #VERSIONNUMBER# as needed - do a DIR if you don't know)
