With the control panel you cannot change all the standard colors.
There are 6 unlisted color options:
	ButtonFace
	ButtonShadow
	ButtonText
	GrayText
	Hilight
	HilightText

These you have to change in the win.ini file with eg notepad.  All 
this can also be found in the winini2.txt file in you windows 
directory.  Note that you have to restart windows for the changes to 
take effect.
