Additional Info:
Link leads to a blizzard site that gives you a link for a download for a registry key, that supposedly fixes your colours.

Code below
+ Show Spoiler +

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectDraw\Compatibility\StarCraft116]
"Name"="StarCraft.exe"
"ID"=hex:ca,89,65,49
"Flags"=hex:00,08,00,00

lol it takes more than that. they have to make sure the change doesnt completely bug out the game. that takes a lot of time to test.

I actually didn't expect them to fix this. I'm impressed and happy with blizz atm!

K, so this isn't actually anything new. I'm still happy that they're at least aware of the problem though.
