Curious to see if the 'ignores user's color scheme' problem was fixed, I decided to give one of these a whirl. My first attempt crashed while downloading the mirror list (VS2005 seems to indicate a NULL dereference in msvcrt.dll, but isn't giving much in the way of more useful information). But now it's not happening. Oh, well.
Anyway... the problem with colors is /improved/ but not fixed. The text is now legible (which is wonderful, thanks!) but the tree structure, including the clickable [+] and [-] icons is now 99.9% invisible (turns out they ARE a different color, but not one that is visually distinguishable from my window background).
My current window background color is (70,74,80); it seems this is the only color that controls the color of the tree lines (if I change this color, and ONLY this color, I also get a different color for the tree lines). Several choices of color (e.g. (64,0,128)), result in tree lines that *are* exactly the same color!
