you are talking about the taskbar window right? if you want to make that blink like when a prog needs your attention, I'm afraid I don't think you can do that.
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the only way you can do that is by throwing up a javascript alert or something when new messages come in but I don't think that helps you. I would also be quite interested in this if there is a way. I actually haven't used AIR since it was called Apollo and I'm totally just BS'ing here, but can you create a mini air app to run in the system tray that communicates with your flex app maybe? A message comes in thru Flash, gets sent to AIR - then u can show a message in the sys tray to let the user know they have new messages.... ? Sounds simple enough anyway (except for that whole install process for all the users :) hth, d.
