Hi,

1. is it possible to use the notifyicon control from a component as opposed
to a form?
2. is it possible to use a Windows service to control how and when the
notify icon will be displayed in the system tray and have it stay there
permanently without doing this from a form?

any help will be appreciated.

Yes, you can use it on other components.

I suggest not to add a user interface to a service. Instead, write a
service controller application which communicates with the server but runs
under the user account.
 
Hi
I think you can implement your own ApplicationContext and use
notifyicon in it
