Icon Background

[Crispy]

Hi,

Does anyone know why I seem, suddenly, to get a "block" background behind my
desktop icons - Previously it was a nice clear type on the background - Not
the tiltle of the icon in what now seems to be its own "box"

I'd like to get rid of this "box" if I can!!

Any suggestions?

Regards and thanks

control panel \ system \ advanced
performance settings
use drop shadows
apply and okay your way out

Tried that - Still the same - Any other ideas?

It seems that is using an XP theme that is "modified" - Is there a way I can
get the original back - as the original does not now appear on the coices
for "themes".......

Thnaks

Kelly has some theme fixes at line 187. I don't see the connection
between themes and your original question, though.
