    Okay,
    I'm tired of the vista's bloated theme, so I went back to the windows standard one, because it feels more like the windows I'm used to.
    One question though - how do I change the taskbar color from grey to something else?

    In the past Microsoft used to provide other colour options for the Classic theme which will allow the colour change of the taskbar. Sadly, they removed it in Vista. You may need a skinnning utility.
