adding a textbox (searchbox) to the windows taskbar

Hello everyone, hope all is well. I looking to find out how to add a textbox
to the windows taskbar permanently perhaps next to the quick launch group of
items. Something similar to the screen shot here
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetbandobjects.asp. I wonder if this can
be done. I would like when something is typed into the box that my
application launches and has as an input parameter the text from the textbox.
I hope you understand what I mean.
