No, I use LTR Plus! and I don't think it is related to Windows registry in any way.

I checked Windows Live Messenger's registry entry "IM Color" after setting my font color to yellow and I saw it is stored as RGB in it too (FFFF00). So I decided to post this thread however I am still not that sure of it.

In fact there would be no that big problem if Plus! didn't offer registry settings. However while setting these settings in registry people must know they must use BGR values.

If your statement is true, then TabChatFlashColor must use BGR values too in terms of consistency ;) I think we both agree on this.
