Yes, but I asked what color scheme you're using. And is it an XP
style, or a Classic style? I think this is significant, because they
handle system colors differently.

I am using a Classic style on XP, derived from the old Maple theme.
There is absolutely no difference on my system between highlighted
measures in Fin2007 and Fin2008. The highlight color is the same, and
the notes and staff lines are black in both versions.
Just to test, I changed my system to the default XP scheme. You're
right that the notes and staff lines in highlighted measures are
white in Fin2007 and black in Fin2008 -- although the blue highlight
color is exactly the same in both versions. It just looks lighter in
2007 because of the white items. But I did screen grabs and compared
the actual color values, and they're the same. (Which I expected --
Finale is just using a default system highlight color.)
The white vs. black thing is odd. You might want to contact Makemusic
and complain -- though I'm pretty sure they'll say it was a design
choice rather than a bug.
Aaron.
