    Have the strangest problem, the NotifyIcon component will not "popup" its notifications under Windows 7. I even went into notification settings and explicitly told windows to always show all the icons and notifications, still nothing. To make sure I wasn't going insane I copied the program to a Windows XP box and the notification icon worked as expected. No to be defeated, I loaded up the registry on the windows 7 box, found the notification key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\EnableBalloonTips" changed the value from 0 to 1 and still nothing. Has anyone else seen this problem.

      The NotifyIcon doesnt show when Icon is not specified to it. Assign an ICON to it and see if it works now or not. :sigh:

          Think maybe its a bug. All the notify stuff in win 7 is on yet it wont work. Works like a champ in xp.
