This, finally, works on my system. Is it of use to you too?
Never mind, of course this doesn't work, and I'm a very sloppy tester.

Really, by this point, I can really only advise two courses of action:

- Give up and accept that there will be a window.
- After the process has started, use ugly code to find the window and hide
it manually.

Doing it "properly" is way, way more trouble than its worth.

> Thanks again for your time. I'll try a few more things and then try
one of the things you mentioned (probably give up and accept that
there will be a window). I was also looking at the new namespace
System.IO.Pipes. It has an AnonymousPipeServerStream that might be
useful.

If you don't mind the dependency on .NET 3.5 (since that's when they were introduced) then using the native pipe classes is definitely preferable to rolling your own. (I only recently discovered them myself, otherwise I would have recommended them.)
