I've made a background program available in the task tray with the NotifyIcon class, but I'd like this task tra
item to be available to other users who may log on with terminal services.

Does this mean I need to make the program a windows service? And can a windows service then
have an interface?
 
In general a service doesn't have a user interface, and usually it's a
separate program that provides the NotifyIcon. I don't have a Terminal
Service at hand, but I think you should setup your application to be
avaiable for every user, and add a shortcut in the Startup folder.
 
I believe a windows Service can display an icon in the Systray but it end
there. As a service as no message loop you won't be able to react to user
events.
