Color options for increassed Accessibility in Office Communicator

[RBM]

A friend who is vision impaired needs to have his windows set for High
Contrast Black background with White foreground text. Office Communicator
does not appear to use his default windows colors and does not appear to
allow him to change the foreground and background colors. As a result he
cannot use this product.

Can Office Communicator be enhanced to use windows default colors?

I was amazed and puzzled when i deployed ocs for a user which required the
high contrast settings and the background stayed white (while the text has
automatically to go with the themes colours*).

This will also mean that it should override all coloured* messages received
to be white, cause other users can select a crashing colour*.
