Style of inactive selected file in solution explorer

I am using Visual Studio 2008 under Windows XP. The background color of the selected file in the solution explorer changes from blue to a light gray (or brown) when the solution explorer loses focus.

The light background color is hard for me to distinguish from the white background.

How can I change this setting?
