Disable the Color Picker system extension by doing the following:
 
1. On the Apple menu, click Control Panels.
 
2. Double-click Extensions Manager.
 
3. Clear the Color Picker extension check box in the extension window.

MORE INFORMATION
================
 
The Color Picker extension is a system extension that provides two ways to
pick custom colors: the Apple HSL (Hue Saturation Lightness) dialog box and
the Apple RGB (Red Green Blue) dialog box. Without the Color Picker loaded,
there is one color selection dialog box. You can change both HSB (Hue
Saturation Brightness) and RGB (Red Green Blue) values in this same window.
