    Welcome to Wilders!

    I personally don't see the need for something like this. You can use Alt+Tab to navigate between the open windows. Plus most pages that are open are static(meaning you would have to reload them for them to update). If you are looking at several web pages at the same time, you would most likely have to refresh them to get the new info anyway.

    If there is a program out there that does this, I am not aware of it. :)

    If you are using Windows 2000 or XP, Windows -should- make the tray icon blink a few times if something in a background window changes. If you have 2000 or XP and it's not, or you want to customize the number of times it flashes, you can get a system tweaker like FreshUI (http://www.freshdevices.com/ - it's freeware, but requires free registration. Don't worry, they don't spam, just tell you when new updates are out) to change the settings. This program has a lot of other nice little tweaks you can do too :)
