Change tray icon if the new chat message appears [patch solution]

[jkollss 0]

Note to this patch: You have to create some NewChatMessage.ico file in the res\ directory. I did this just painted the standard Apex icon to the red. You can create that icon as you wish.

Also, this patch is quick and can be optimized to prevent copy-paste of the code. Take this just as an idea. And setup settings also maybe has to be implemented about that feature.

I used this on my own not so active hub, and found it very usable.

You need to recompile the client in order to use it. See the compiling ApexDc thread.

For few month i m asking for animated tray icon on MC message receive, and i m waiting for someone to make it. Pls can someone compile this, i know that many people would find this useful.
