Hi Boojum,

The file won't work on 98 systems. You'll need to manually find this key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Gaming Zone\Chat]
and change the color from ffffff to the new color you want to use.
"FontColor"=dword:ffffff

regedit mistakes can be fatal. Proceed with caution and at your risk.
