SilverDragon tracks rares. It'll remember where you last saw a rare mob, and will pop up a notification message when you get near one.
If you have nameplates enabled it'll scan through them to find rares nearby. Otherwise it requires you to mouseover/target a rare, or for your party member/pets to do likewise.
If you have Cartographer installed it will add map notes for rares, which can be shared with others.
SilverDragon comes with a list of rares. Either type "/silverdragon defaults" or use the menu option to install it. (It's not installed by default, in case people would prefer to keep the suspense alive. )

1.0 r49794

Optional Files - SilverDragon
Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.
There's at least 4 problems with using this under WotLK.
embeds.xml needs to be updated to use the included LibBabbleZone, this is a rather easy fix, just change line 16 from:
<Include file="Libs\Babble-Zone-3.0\lib.xml"/>
to:
<Include file="Libs\LibBabble-Zone-3.0\lib.xml"/>
Core.lua needs to be fixed, so as to remove the "Attempt to hook a non-existant function \"ShowNameplates"" error. This fix is beyond my meagre abilities I'm afraid, if anyone else knows how to fix this then please post.
Defaults.lua needs to be updated with rares from WotLK. Again, this is beyond my abilities, but if anyone can or knows how to update this file, please post.
Included libraries need to be updated correctly. Yet again, this is beyond my abilities, but if anyone can update the included libraries, please post.
It seems Kemayo hasn't visited this site since August, so I guess the chances of any official fixes may well be rather limited!

I am not a coder, so forgive me if this suggestion is flawed...
But how about a sound from one of the BGs? The first sound that comes to mind is the 'X Team has gathered 1800 resources and is about to win.' sound from AB.
It will get your attention without knocking you out of your chair.
I don't know the actual name of the sound file or anything, however. Thanks for your response, btw.
