If you don't want a form show in the task bar then set its ShowInTaskbar property to False. Oh, those cryptic property names! ;)
If you want an icon in the notification area (system tray) then you need to add a NotifyIcon to your form, set its Icon property and set its Visible property to True.
Here is a recent thread on the topic: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=503645
EDIT: jmc beating me all morning. ;)
If you add a notifyicon remember to set the visble property to false when you exit the app. it isn't required, just neater.
