Only for XP, at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop, create two new dword values named "FocusBorderHeight" and "FocusBorderWidth" to control width of selection rectangle in explorer. They can be set seperately, setting Height to 0x00000001 (default) and Width to 0x00000003 will set top and bottom width to a 1px line, left and right to 3px.
Note that also selected items in for instance regedit treeview are handled and tend to look bad pretty quick... also not working if, at control panel, system, advanced tab, performance dialog "show translucent selection rectangle" is checked.
