Yes, Windows7 has a slightly different/better API for toast, I think. All
the toast popups I do now are for Win7, but I think it was rather more
awkward around the WinXP time-frame. 
Take a look at the Win7-specific functionality (some are needed for the
additional special folders, Libraries, etc). There is also a Windows 7
managed APIs code pack somewhere (from the Windows Team, before its official
release as I recall). 
I'm sure that there are other small libraries to make toast/popup
functionality more elaborate, if you like that sort of thing.

What is the name of little notification windows that come up on bottom
right hand side of screen?
Like when outlook receives a new email.

Is there something more recent with Windows 7 that replaces it? any
one know of free/OS components for that by any chance?

Regards
