Communicate across application instances

I need to send a signal from one instance of my application to another instance. What would be the best method to do this?
In Win32 I would just use a named event to do this, but they aren't available in .NETSad

Depending on what you are doing, you may be able to use System.Threading.Mutex (v1.1) or System.Threading.Semaphore (v2.0).

Worst case, you could write a little NamedEventType or something that extended WaitHandle and p/invoked to create named event.
