Well, after some digging and registry trial-and-error (I love XReg), I at least found the registry entry that is getting modified...
All of the color settings appear to be under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Color
I noticed several that were set to "FF FF FF 00" (they all have a pair of trailing zeros), so I started changing them to "00 00 00 00". The first one in the list, "9", changed the color of the Navigation Bar Text, and the second one in the list "39", changed the color of the Start Menu Text.
So, at least I have my menu text back to black, now if I can just find the rogue app that is changing it in the first place! Might be FreeSnake, but I'm not certain yet, it could be the Today Theme Switcher.
