           Summary: MessageBox from child form's web request freezes
                    program

Description of Problem:
When the function assigned to
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback launches a MessageBox
at the behest of a WebRequest on a form that is the child of another form, the
program freezes. In .NET the MessageBox launches without an issue.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Run the attached code under Mono 2.6.1 and then click "Go for it" on the
second form.

Actual Results:
MessageBox frame materializes and then the application freezes.


Expected Results:
MessageBox pops up and program continues running.

How often does this happen? 
Every time.

Additional Information:
I discovered this when trying to apply what I learned from
http://www.mono-project.com/UsingTrustedRootsRespectfully to my own program. As
my program is GUI based, using the console to get user input was out the
question so I tried replacing it with a MessageBox, leading to this error.
