Check the options, and if you're using a skin, it's probably that.

Just go to tool or option or whatever and find text properties and if its black change to white.

Not really sure,firefox ftw.

It happens when you're using a custom skin or theme. Usually when using an msstyle, which is the most basic of custom skins for windows.

Choose a different skin, or if you're adept reshacking, (Which I'm sure you aren't, judging by this post) you could change the color yourself.
