I use a little free utility called Iconoid. It will set the text color to whatever you want as well as making the background transparent so that the wall paper will come through. Its a freebie available from

As an added extra, it will keep your desktop icons in position if you want..

Hi Ben,
I now have an invisible background on my desktop Icon text. Now I have White
Text with a black Shadow, I would love it if it were Black text and a white
shadow but have searched and searched and can not find how to change the
Icon text colors like I used to be able to do  in Win98SE.
Thanks for your quick response,
Rocky de Dragon

Right click on my computer and choose properties.  Go to the advanced tab
and click on performance options, then visual effects tab .  Make sure "use
drop shadows for icon labels is checked.
