More about green: I run Mathematica under Windows XP but with the Windows Classic Style appearance. That's where I'm seeing the grayscale colors for the progress indicator. If I switch to Windows XP Style, then indeed I see green squares migrating across the bar. So evidently the result of ProgressIndicator depends on OS-specific things.
