I've always run XP with the Classic theme and am now thinking of upgrading to
Vista. Now, the Classic theme in Vista looks quite poor IMHO.
I'd actually quite like to use the new Aero interface, but there's something
about it that really bugs me. It actually began with XP.
Microsoft's use of the blue highlight for the menu bar. Not for the actual
menu itself, but the actual menu header. It jars against the rest of the Aero
interface.
I've posted examples of what I mean here:

Is there any way to prevent this in Vista, without switching to the Classic
theme?
In that post, when I mention 'The preferred look', I don't mean the whole
interface should look classic, I just want to avoid that blue highlight in
the menu bar (remember, the menu itself as you move the mouse up and down is
ok), but the header looks poor.
Thanks,
Simon.
