urxvt no longer working

I typed export TERM=xterm to get a screen application working and now i cant get uxrvt to come back with working colors, my .Xdefaults are right.  I set export TERM=rxvt in my .bashrc but still no colors work.

Re: urxvt no longer working

Try starting without any TERM statement in ~/.bashrc

I set my terminal colors for both xterm and urxvt in ~/.Xdefaults

You may be able to learn how to configure lots of different settings from this example .Xdefaults:

Re: urxvt no longer working

TERM=xterm-color

or as thisoldman said, try removing it altogether.
