Changing the text shading on the task bar

[ilovepiano]

Right, I installed a new XP desktop theme today, and I'm loving it apart from one really annoying thing.

Take a look at the pic... Is there any way to turn off that shadowing effect on the text in the red circle, so it looks like all the text on the menu above it? It looks gash and is hard to read.

Not sure if this helps mate as I dont know if its a TFT youve got?
But, I've just bought a TFT and the text werent looking that good! i downloaded this and it made a big difference>> http://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/Step1.aspx

If anyone has a TFT try this and see if its better...

I've sacked it off an got a similar theme that doesn't have gay shading.

Cheers anyway though, I've tried what you suggested, and now everything looks like a PDF file. Mint!

And I've got a (almost) matching theme for Firefox complete with Gmail notifier that works with multiple accounts.
