Change the Explorer toolbar background
To change the toolbar background in Internet & Windows Explorer, open Regedit, and after backing up your registry, browse to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar\
Create a new string value called BackBitmap and type in a path to a tiling bitmap, such as c:\windows\cool.bmp. If this doesn't work for you, try using 'double slashes', e.g c:\\windows\\cool.bmp instead.
Microsoft have also made a tool available to change toolbar wallpapers. More information can be found on David Angell's web site and you can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/webaccess/tbwlpapr.exe.
