I have questions about various color problems:

One application I run consistently changes the background color of my
menus to gray.  Also, sometime around when I first ran it, the icons
for Kolor and Colors cdevs when displayed in the control panel lost
their color and are now in black and white.  Also, occasionally with
these two cdevs, I'll change a color to something, but when I leave
the color picker and get back to the main window of the cdev, the
setting will be lost (sometimes I'll see it for a fraction of a second
before it gets rewritten).  Using General and others, I've attempted
to change my desktop background pattern to something besides gray, but
it won't change.  

Obviously somehow these various settings are getting overwritten.
Does anyone know how to prevent this?  Also, how can I get the colors
back into my control panel icons?  How can I get my desktop to change
to something besides gray?  Any other hints appreciated.

thanks,
