Multiplicity in Task Manager... Why?

Hi,

I have a program that posts notes on the Windows desktop. The main form of
the program is hidden, and the program can be accessed via the system tray.
When a note (a new form that belongs to the application) is created and
posted on the desktop, I change the parent of the form to the handle of the
desktop. Everything works well, BUT...

When I create 5 notes, and open Task Manager, in the applications tab it
shows me that there are 5 instances of the program running. In the processes
tab it shows that there's only one process, which is correct, because
there's only one instance of the program running. Why does it show a
separate task for every note? How can I fix it?

Any help would be appreciated.

Tito
