Can I change the colour of the comment indicator that surrounds each comment?

Our company is utilizing the commenting feature more now in Adobe Acrobat X Pro. This is an attempt to reduce printing on paper. In one of our processes, people will use the comments listed in the Comments Panel to keep track of each note. They mark each one as complete, once they've reviewed whatever the note entails. The only problem is, as you click each comment from the panel, the comment is indicated on the page. The indicator that surrounds the comment is a light-blue squiggly line. It's a bit hard to see, so I was wondering if that color could be changed. I would prefer to have it as a red squiggly line.
 
I see how you can change the comment note colors, but not the indicator line that surrounds the comment. Is that some sort of system color that needs to be changed in Windows??
 
thanks,
Jon W.

That is a built-in Acrobat highlight color and there is no preference to change it.
