ShowInTaskbar and WinMessage

Why if my WindowsForm has ShowInTaskbar to "False", the process isn't able to receive wMsg of type 0x4A from other processes ???

If ShowInTaskbar is true, my process can send and receive WMessages toward other applications! But if ShowInTaskbar is false, the process can only send WM!!

The final question is following: Is there a way to send and receive messages without having the application on taskbar ??

Excluse for my not perfect english....

Thanks in advance!

What is the message "0x4A" ?
With ShowInTaskBar set to false, you should still receive window events normally.
