function New-MessageBox {
    <#
.SYNOPSIS
    New-Popup will display a message box. If a timeout is requested it uses Wscript.Shell PopUp method. If a default button is requested it uses the ::Show method from 'Windows.Forms.MessageBox'
.DESCRIPTION
    The New-Popup command uses the Wscript.Shell PopUp method to display a graphical message
    box. You can customize its appearance of icons and buttons. By default the user
    must click a button to dismiss but you can set a timeout value in seconds to
    automatically dismiss the popup.
 
    The command will write the return value of the clicked button to the pipeline:
    Timeout = -1
    OK = 1
    Cancel = 2
    Abort = 3
    Retry = 4
    Ignore = 5
    Yes = 6
    No = 7
 
    If no button is clicked, the return value is -1.
.PARAMETER Message
    The message you want displayed
.PARAMETER Title
    The text to appear in title bar of dialog box
.PARAMETER Time
    The time to display the message. Defaults to 0 (zero) which will keep dialog open until a button is clicked
.PARAMETER Buttons
    Valid values for -Buttons include:
    "OK"
    "OKCancel"
    "AbortRetryIgnore"
    "YesNo"
    "YesNoCancel"
    "RetryCancel"
.PARAMETER Icon
    Valid values for -Icon include:
    "Stop"
    "Question"
    "Exclamation"
    "Information"
    "None"
.PARAMETER ShowOnTop
    Switch which will force the popup window to appear on top of all other windows.
.PARAMETER AsString
    Will return a human readable representation of which button was pressed as opposed to an integer value.
.EXAMPLE
    new-popup -message "The update script has completed" -title "Finished" -time 5
 
    This will display a popup message using the default OK button and default
    Information icon. The popup will automatically dismiss after 5 seconds.
.EXAMPLE
    $answer = new-popup -Message "Please pick" -Title "form" -buttons "OKCancel" -icon "information"
 
    If the user clicks "OK" the $answer variable will be equal to 1. If the user clicks "Cancel" the
    $answer variable will be equal to 2.
.EXAMPLE
    $answer = new-popup -Message "Please pick" -Title "form" -buttons "OKCancel" -icon "information" -AsString
 
    If the user clicks "OK" the $answer variable will be equal to 'OK'. If the user clicks "Cancel" the
    $answer variable will be 'Cancel'
.OUTPUTS
    An integer with the following value depending upon the button pushed.
 
    Timeout = -1 # Value when timer finishes countdown.
    OK = 1
    Cancel = 2
    Abort = 3
    Retry = 4
    Ignore = 5
    Yes = 6
    No = 7
