I recommend J-Edit. It's a java based editor, runs on multiple platforms,
it's GNU. Does syntax highlighting, has support for plugins.

Put the following Lisp in your startup file (c:\_emacs unless you've made
one
elsewhere).
Close emacs and start it up again.
This gives colours more like the PC norms (eg comments in dark green on gray
etc.)
Otherwise you can use the Customise - Specific Face option on the Help menu
to
let you redefine each face (with preview etc.) and save the new colours for
later use ... the faces you'll want to change are all the "font-lock-..."
faces
(ie colour syntax highlighting). When it asks for a face to change, type
"font-lock" (without the quotes) and press Tab to get a list of faces ....
Stick with it, it seems hard at first, but then powerful tools usually do...
Cheers
