Change your mouse pointer's hover color while surfing!

When you hover your mouse pointer over links on some Web sites, you may notice that the linked text turns color. This color, called the hover color, is built in to some Web sites, but there's a way to use Internet Explorer to change the color to one of your choosing.

Launch Internet Explorer and then choose Tools | Internet Options. In the Internet Options dialog box, click the Accessibility button on the General property sheet. In the Accessibility dialog box, select the Ignore Colors Specified On Web Pages option and click OK. Then, in the Internet Options dialog box, click the Colors button and in the Colors dialog box, select the Use Hover Color check box. Click the color box beside Hover and select a color of your choice from the palette. Click OK, and then click OK once again to close the Colors dialog box. Click OK to close the Internet Options dialog box as well. Now, hover your mouse pointer over the links on a Web page. The hover color should reflect the one you chose in the Colors dialog box.
