I assume you'll want this to be active in the taskbar evn when the user is not on your site via a browser?

If that the case, your most likely going to need to do something in C++ or .Net or something. It would also be possible to do it in Python and even PHP-Gtk but theres allot of overhead there (your clients would need php-gtk or Python installed).

If you just want the thing running within a browser its a simple Ajax solution.
