I am working on a Windows application, pretty basic, using MFC (I am
not an expert in Windows GUI). Now I need to add this small window
that appears near the cursor when it is placed over a line in a
listbox. Because I don't even know a name for this gadget, I cannot
find any help on the subject. Could somebody please either suggest how
to program this window, or at least tell me what is its official name
so I can search for help myself ?

They're called tooltips. Here's a good place to start (though there's
probably a wrapper in MFC which you might want to find):
