Some of the applications running on Windows 7 (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, in example) use the icon they present in the task bar to show a little progress bar. Is it possible to use that feature using the .NET Framework 3.5?

A:
Try the Windows API Code Pack
This assembly provides access to Windows specific features like the tool bar. It allows for just the scenario you're looking for.

Since the new taskbar APIs can be accessed from C or C++ using Win32 API calls and COM, you can access them from any version of .NET by calling into the C APIs. Some examples can be found in this article. See also the resources linked here.
