Place point at the text which has the color,
then use this function
(defun what-face (pos)
(interactive "d")
(let((face (or (get-char-property pos 'face)
(get-char-property pos 'read-cf-name) )))
(message " Face: %s" (or face "(no face!)")) ))
to find out what face it is.
If it is, say, `w3m-image-anchor', use this to
set it to white foreground, green background,
using the bold (or bright) version of white
(the fifth argument being t).
(modify-face 'w3m-image-anchor "white" "green" nil t)
Eval these for cool effects with the Mode line:
(modify-face 'mode-line "white" "blue" nil t)
(modify-face 'mode-line-inactive "white" "red" nil nil)
Most often you don't want a background, so set it to nil:
(modify-face 'gnus-group-news-6 "blue" nil nil t)
And so on. Dig deep...
If you want to change the color itself, i.e.
what RGB composition it means to be "white"
(and green, blue, red, etc.) I do this in the
Linux VTs and in xterm [1] - in PuTTY,
a Windows ssh/telnet client, I suspect it is
still possible.
