[VB 2005 App/Browser]How to get a form to always be ontop of a Full-Screened item.

Today the MMORPG Runescape owned by JaGex released there full screen and HD mode to the game.(it's browser based)
Because of there full screen mode they fill the whole screen not just the browser window,it overlaps everything,from the tab's to the file bar.

So,is there a way to make the form always ontop of it?

Someone said someone said something about a Timer with Setwindowontop every 500milisceonds. But being as i don't know how to set a timer (being as i am new to VB.NET).


So if anyone has any other ideas or is willing to teach me how to set the timer,all help in welcome and needed.

Just for some clarification...
So you want one of your apps to stay on top of everything, right? The part about the game is throwing me off. You want a form from one of your apps to always be on top of everything, including your game?

Yes,if this is even passable, all of the 20 something toolkits for it are having this same issue with it going full screen and covering them,mine is made to not take up space but it is still being overlaped by the full screen.

Edit,this is a App,and i want it to sit ontop of the game screen.
