    1) IMs:

    Windows live messenger with live plus (type msn plus into google) makes it rather skinable

    Miranda is also skinable quite easily

    2) Media players

    foobar2000 is most customizable

    winamp is also skinable

    itunes (specific versions)

    WMP 10/11 can also be skinned

    3) Browsers

    FF is probably easiest with its themes

    Opera is also possible
