<rgb()> = rgb( <percentage>{3} [ / <alpha-value> ]? ) | rgb( <number>{3} [ / <alpha-value> ]? ) | rgb( <percentage>#{3} , <alpha-value>? ) | rgb( <number>#{3} , <alpha-value>? )

This example uses -ms-scrollbar-track-color, -ms-scrollbar-face-color, and -ms-scrollbar-arrow-color to create two <div> elements with different scroll bar color schemes.
div {
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: thin;
overflow-y: scroll;
font-family: sans-serif;
float: left;
margin-right: 10px;
}
.blueScroll {
-ms-scrollbar-highlight-color: aqua;
-ms-scrollbar-face-color: blue;
-ms-scrollbar-arrow-color: blue;
border-color: blue;
}
.redScroll {
-ms-scrollbar-highlight-color: bisque;
-ms-scrollbar-face-color: red;
-ms-scrollbar-arrow-color: red;
border-color: red;
}
<body>
<div class="blueScroll">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.
</div>
<div class="redScroll">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.
</div>
</body>

In Windows Internet Explorer 8 the -ms-scrollbar-track-color attribute is an extension to CSS, and can be used as a synonym for scrollbar-track-color in IE8 Standards Mode.
The track is the element of a scroll bar on which the scroll box can slide either up and down or left and right. The scroll box is the rectangular box within a scroll bar that can be moved either up and down or left and right on a track to change the position of the content on the screen.
This property applies to elements that display a scroll bar. CSS enables scrolling on all objects through the overflow property.
