I'm running XP sp2 & IE6.
Recently the Task Bar along the bottom of screen changes from blue to fawn
colour for no apparent reason. Everything else remains as normal.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, John

Re-apply the theme:

Right-Click desktop > Properties > Appearance > Select whatever theme you
want > Apply

Did that solve your problem?

Go to Start Menu, then control panel, then double click display. From there
you can choose the apperance tab to change your settings back to the way they
were.

Thanks, Jeff & solidsnake204, for your advice. It seems to have worked so
far. Anyway, if the color changes again I will now know what to do.
John.
