im not sure how to explian this but here is an e.g..

Msn messenger, when someone signs in you see a box popup bottom right of the screen showing 'user has signed in' etc

i want a simple popup like this to appear in the bottom right screen for 2 seconds, any one know how to do this guys?

or an alternative is something which appears on top of everything like a msgbox? but i dont know if this is possible
