visual studio color theme problem

I am using a version of Vim's wombat color theme for Visual studio 2008. Whenever I open a window of a plugin (Visual AssistX in my case), the theme colors change. Especially the "User keywords" category - class names and methods. For some reason it changes to dark blue. Since its a dark background theme the dark blue text is almost impossible to read.

If I close visual studio and re-open it, the theme renders fine. And the problem happens when I open a plugin window.

The above problem is not just with this theme, it's with any theme I have tried so far :(

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to rectify it?

The issue for me was that I disabled the Database in C/C++ while having enabled only the Visual Assist intellisense.

So make sure you Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced -> Disable Database is FALSE and Rescan Solution Interval is not 0 (default is 300).

Fixed the problem. The plugin (Visual AssistX) had its own fonts and colors settings which was overriding VS fonts and color settings. Changing them fixed the problem.
