See http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?SetColor - you can't
interactively use RGB values.

See above.

Try:
M-x customize-group<return>
font-lock-highlighting-faces<return>
You should then be able to look at all the faces (e.g.
font-lock-comment-face etc) and change the colours to whatever you
like.
