Sorry i think it was a little too late that evening i read that :)

If I could get just that which I've already written about I would be pleased, but I'm looking for the possibility of also adding an element on the application that displays an RSS feed in stock market / news "ticker tape" display format.
Are you not aware that there are 7 RSS formats?

Yes, what's your point?

Do you want them all implemented?

No, the RSS feed would be created internally, hosted by us, using whatever format you want. We would need a tool to create the feed or a third party tool would be fine.

Ok, that greatly simplifies matters. :)

Sorry for being vague. I'm trying to give the user a reason to keep this client application running at all times. I have access to a good deal of information/news these customers would like to read so I do have content for the feed. If there are any other ideas I would love to hear them. I want the application to be interesting enough to have the customers have it running at all time.

If the UI has room maybe it could display a few words of each message like many of the RSS feeds do? Maybe the scrolling ticker news display is stupid and someone has a much cleaner idea, that would be GREAT. Don't limit yourselves to what I have written, if you have some other ideas I would love to hear and see them.
