If you're using 2005/Framework 2.0 the best place I've found to do something
like this is the Form_Shown event.

Well, the best place is probably in your Main() method, just before
Application.Run().

Note, however, if you use a MessageBox, it will be Modal -- your
application will stop until the user click OK.
