The Paypal IPN only uses HttpRequest. Fortunately, you can send an HTTP request from a windows application. You can use the WebHttpRequest to send HTML on the format specified by the Paypal IPN.

You just simulate a POST request to the IPN. This is an example of a desktop application that simulates a POST request to login to facebook. I hope it helps.
