To reduce the color depth of the buttons to 256 or 16 colors
you can use for example the free program IrfanView.
Copy for example the folder Phoenity from skins to a
different place in order to experiment with the buttons
in it.
Open a bitmap in IrfanView and go to the menu "Image".
There select the entry "Reduce color depth" and select
256 or 16 colors. I am not sure about the exact menu names,
as I have the german version. There it is "Bild" and
"Farbtiefe aendern".
Save the new picture as a bitmap into a second folder
Phoenity and do that for all the bitmaps. There is also a 
batch converter included.
After having finished your work for all pictures,
replace the original skin folder in K-Meleon by your new one.
Rename the old one first to for example Phoenity-original
in order not to lose it.
I don't think that reducing color depth makes sense normally,
but is only acceptable in special cases for very old
computers.
As for your other question I don'have a clue. IE should not
influence K-Meleon usability.[/quote]
