I'm using DotNetOpenAuth
(http://dotnetopenauth.net/) library to authenticate at linkedIn.com. I develop a desktop application and now I'm a little confused. I'm unaware if it's possible to authenticate using a desktop application.
Does anybody know? If it's possible please show me how to do that.

Yes, it depends on how you want to approach it, but maybe looking at the DesktopConsumer class in the API might point you in the right direction: http://docs.dotnetopenauth.net/v3.4/html/T_DotNetOpenAuth_OAuth_DesktopConsumer.htm
One example usage as a desktop app is detailed here: http://developer.yahoo.com/forum/Fantasy-Sports-API/Authenticating-with-NET-using-DotNetOpenAuth/1279209867000-4eee22f1-25fd-3589-9115-1a835add3212
