You could technically implement a toolbar with WPF but there is a potential issue with this or other approaches that uses managed code. There can only be one version of the .NET CLR loaded into the IE process so if you need .NET 3.5 and .NET 1.0 has been loaded you could be in trouble.

You can implement the COM interfaces required to create an IE toolbar with WPF, and you might want to look at some WinForms examples for the basics.

Products like Add-in Express claim to make programming IE extensions with managed code easier and safer.
