I want to write a small program that will display a status icon in the 
system tray and pop up small messages in the corner of the screen. [It 
is critical that these do *not* take the input focus. Can you imagine 
how *annoying* that would be?]

Any suggestions as to how to pull this off? Personally I don't know of a 
programming language that makes it easy to do this kind of thing.

[Obviously everything is possible in C, if you can figure out your way 
around the low-level Win32 API... But that doesn't sound like my idea of 
a good time.]
