I can't speak for WinNT, as I don't have it available, but on Win98, using HWD_MESSAGE as the parent window to CreateWindowEx() appears to work fine (despite what MSDN says). Using it I end up with a window that is a child of a hidden system window. The window is not top level, not visible, and I can't make it receive a broadcast message. As soon as I can get back in front of a Win2K box I'll look to see if the implementation looks the same there.
