So I got a free control here for you. It is a pretty simple control, completly in C#. It is a notification/information bar, like that found in IE when you try to download something.

  • Useful for when you don’t want to show a MessageBox but want to give the user some info.
  • Uses .NET 2.0.
  • Written in C#.
