Windows service notification icon

=?Utf-8?B?UmFmaQ==?=

Hi,
I made a 'windows services' which works well. When I added a notificaton
icon, the icon apeared in the tray bar but when I clicked it, no events came
into my service. (I did allowed the service to intercat with the desktop).
Can you tell me why I can't receive the events?
Thank you

It is not recommended for a service to interact directly with the desktop.
What I suggest is that you develop a second application that interacts with
the service using a service controller to control the service.
