GTK theme not applied in Firefox/Thunderbird 1.5

[Indigo 23]

I checked my gtkrc-2.0 file, and here are its contents:

--------------------BEGIN ~/.gtkrc-2.0----------------------------
# -- Appended by GNOME Configurator
include ".gtkrc-2.0-scrollbar_cog"
style "panel"
{
  fg[NORMAL]               = "#ffffff"
  fg[ACTIVE]               = "#0f0f0f"
  bg[ACTIVE]               = "#C0C0C0"
}
widget "<strong>PanelWidget</strong>" style "panel"
widget "<strong>PanelApplet</strong>" style "panel"
class "<strong>Panel</strong>" style "panel"
widget_class "<strong>Mail</strong>" style "panel"
class "<strong>notif</strong>" style "panel"
class "<strong>Notif</strong>" style "panel"
class "<strong>Tray</strong>" style "panel"
class "<strong>tray</strong>" style "panel"
--------------------END ~/.gtkrc-2.0----------------------------

I don't see any paths to change here.  Any other suggestions?  Also,
do you know why this problem is occuring?

Thanks.
