Answer 1

.net remoting

Answer 2

You will have to use an interprocess communication mechanism that's supported by .NET. The standard ones are named pipes, sockets and WCF. This is always painful and it tends to destabilize your product since failure is so difficult to deal with. You'll need ten really good reasons to want to do this.

Answer 3

My vote is remoting for a 2.0 project. I had a requirement a couple of years ago where I had to have 2 separate apps communicate. The remoting worked like a charm. You just need to make sure you understand what is going on.
