I doubt anyone is gonna spend hours of work to do this. It will require hooking, wont be reliable, and is dependant on knowing the theme most likely, and people use different themes. There are in fact 3 themes shipped with Windows XP, not including classic.

Yes, the script could detect each one of these themes, But the problem is it requires advanced programming in any language, nevermind Jscript. It would most likely require an external DLL to hook the task bar.

maybe there could be a configuration window where you chose what theme you had?

It doesn't matter if it had a configuration window. Even if you knew that 100% of people would be using the XP Luna Blue theme, It would still be a very hard script. Correct me if i'm wrong, but it seems like this would be very hard to do.

yes, it would be very hard to do, but it would definately be worth it
i know at least 50 people who want something like this
if someone does make it, everyone would be so grateful to them and i bet it would get downloaded like 1000s of times

Why do you want to change the colour anyway? What's the point?

because i could customize it for different contacts

eg:
x1@hotmail.com--flashes green
x2@hotmail.com--flashes red

ETC

or i think having a different colour will look a lot better (even if you won't be able to customize it for different contacts0
