Well... since you said "VB or VB.Net", I'll post this sample.... extremely
easy. Tip on the sample...... he's treating a form as a class... save your
time and use it like he does, instead of attempting to merge it all into one
form. If used "as is", it's a breeze.

While there, I noticed this... if I'm reading correctly, it's built on
Framework version 1.0

SysTray from .NET
