Regedit this, reboot, done, no need to complain to the entire world. Any sysadmin should be able to give you the solution.

I still see many cfl's that burn up quickly (1-2 years - though they use electronic balast, they still have filaments for preheating which give up) and/or have that white-blueish light that is _very_ annoying. Those with white-yellowish light need still hunting, if you are lucky you can find a demo stand.
