I've seen a few Windows 7 applications popping up around the web that take advantage of the new task bar functionality.

All interaction is done through the task bar button (with overlays, progress bars, jump lists, etc...

The problem I have is when, for example, I play a video that replays...

I believe there is no .NET method to do this, and also I have come across a lot of "how to hide and show the taskbar" samples, but I haven't seen anything based on what I am looking for. I am not familiar with the Windows API, so I find it hard to understand traditional Windows...

Could you provide links to a library, a...
