add a NotifyIcon control to your form (it'll be in the component tray) add a ContextMenu to your form. on the NotifyIcon set the ContextMenu property to your contextmenu. in the form's CLosing event:

VB.NET:
 e.cancel = true
 me.hide
 notifyicon.visiable=true 'disregard this if the icon is always visible in the tray
