Alert user when file has been updated

I have found scripts to alert users when the page they are viewing has been updated. I'm looking for a script to alert the user when a page other that the page they are viewing has been updated.

The "news" page has the content stored in a .txt file. I want to set a cookie when they view the news page. Then when they return to the main page on their next visit I want an alert if the news.txt has been updated since the cookie was set.

I'm a novice at best..... so cut and paste is my first choice

Thanks!

Use the FileSystemObject to get the DateLastModified of the file and compare it to the cookie value. if the DateLastModified value is newer than the cookie, alert them.
