I really cannot stand the color of the Desktop and Explorer window highlight color (light blue.) How do I change the hover color on the desktop, or remove it completely? I would like to change it to the olive color I managed to change my notepad highlight color and hot tracking color.

I changed my drag color (hot tracking) color to this olive green color.

I also got my highlight color to change to the same color in notepad

I want to change my highlight color in the menu (hovering refresh) to a different color.

I want to change the color of these selected items in explorer

The same with the icons selected on the desktop

And finally I want the hover but not selected icon color on the desktop (even lighter blue) to be changed as well.

Woww, that's a lot you want to change!
I'm using several 'Stardock Software' for my custumisations.
Take a look at:

Stardock Corporation - Products

It's no freeware but most of their procucts are small priced AND you can always try it for free (fully functioning if i'm correct)
Hope it helps you:)
