@galmok, to eliminate any confusion let me clarify a few things.
1. Classic Shell has various main menu styles. If you are using the style called "Windows 7 style", then too, you get two options for All Programs. They are either shown inside a compact tree view inside the main menu. The treeview style is always white. Or, if you go to the tab called "Main Menu" and select the radio button option "Cascading sub-menu", then they get transformed into the flyout style menu. The colors of this submenu can be customized from the "Skins" tab. They can be grey or white depending on the "White sub-menus" option state. Or you can edit the skin yourself to modify all submenu colors.
2. The above settings are applicable only if you are using Windows 7 style. Version 3 did not have this "Windows 7 style" which was newly introduce in version 4 of Classic Shell. If you are using Classic style or Classic with two columns style (which were both there in version 3 as well), more skin choices are available to you. You can choose any of the special skins such as Full Glass, Smoked Glass which have non-white All Programs. You must set these from the "Skins" tab.
3. The tab called "All Programs Skin" appears only on Windows 7 and is applicable only to the built-in Windows 7 Start Menu. The settings there have no effect on the Classic Shell Start Menu. They only when the option "Cascading All Programs menu" is checked on the "Windows Start Menu" tab.

I am a Windows enthusiast and helped a little with Classic Shell's testing and usability/UX feedback.
