is it possible to make an interactive notification to the user from
within a NDIS IM?

i mean something like a baloon in the notification area ("tray").

and, if possible, start an executable if the user clicks the baloon.

if yes - how?

i know i can write my own service to poll/callback on the driver and
pop up the baloons.

but there are chances that such a service already exists in the system
and i just have to teach my driver to interact with it.
after all, there's something that pops up baloons when an ethernet
cable is pulled off, right?

Write a user app which will respond to WMI events from your IM.

In WinXP, Explorer can pop up message from any driver
(IoRaiseInformationalHardError with some status codes) but AFAIK
this does not work since Vista.
Microsoft giveth, and then taketh away.
