MDI Window doesn't show in taskbar on startup until clicked

An application I've just finished developing is not showing up in the
taskbar on startup until the application is clicked on.

This makes it difficult as it is being launched as a No Touch Deployment app
from Internet Explorer. Sometimes the app will show up in the background
without showing up in the taskbar.

Plus if it is minimized, sometimes it just appears hidden without being in
the taskbar and only comes back by clicking Alt-Tab to get back to it.

I know I can call an API to bring the WinForm to the foreground and I will
work on that eventually, but I really need to solve the problem with the
Form not showing up on the taskbar.

ShowInTaskbar is set to true for the MDI Form.
