To change the progressbar color, the easiest way is to use Windowblinds, a
skinning program that is part of a suite of applications by Stardock
Corporation. Other than that, no.

You forgot to quote the text from the message you are replying to?

The only way you change the color of the progress bar is to use the Classic
Theme or use a third party product such as Windows Blinds.

Re: vista green progress bar

or to patch the vista themeing engine with Vistaglazz (WARNING NOT AVAILABLE
AND RECOMENDED UNTIL ITS BEEN UPDATED FOR SP1) and then grabing a visual
style from
www.deviantart.com or making your own

I have seen exactly that, the green progress bars changed to blue.
