Re: Internet Explorer - color of toolbar!

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Zoë

If you want some rather than plain and boring, there are other
options.
You can try the theme manager Rob mentioned (not personally tried) or
there are many others. (Some do come with baggage, so do your homework
first)

It is not difficult to create your own .bmp file to use as an IE
toolbar background if you prefer that. You do need a rudimentary
knowledge of the Registry, so many prefer third party software.
