Question

Is there a way to call MessageBox.Show that appears in the taskbar?

It would probably be best to just create a custom form and display it of course, but being a lazy programmer I want to avoid redoing the default Error and Alert notification icons you get with a good old fashioned MessageBox.Show call.

Try using the MessageBoxOptions enum:

MessageBox.Show('Test', 'Test', MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information,     MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1, MessageBoxOptions.DefaultDesktopOnly); 

Note: There are some multi threading side effect to the usage of this, see the article How To Display A User Interface From A Daemon.
