anybody know how to choose transparent as the text background for desktop icons?

I lost the setting when transferring everything over to the new PC last spring and haven't been able to remember where I chose that option.

Assuming you have Microsoft Windows XP. Open System Properties in Control Panel, choose the Advanced tab, and click Settings in the Performance section. Turn on the Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop option, and click Ok.   :aok
