Hello everyone! I have a question regarding windows messages. In fact i was looking for the same information as Sergey was looking for regading messages for login and logouts from within a service. Now that i know that this is a teadious task to accomplish I want to know what messages to look for when using a traditional application that is started when a user is login in to the computer, and when he is login out. Do I need to setup a system wide hook with the SetWindowsHookEx function, which demands a DLL file to store the callback procedure or is there a much simpler method to do this? I want some work to be processed when the user is login in, aswell as when he logout's. When thinking of this approach, wouldn't the OS give me a timeout error when it doesnt get any response from the application due to the work being processed. Can i prevent such a message? Any sugggestion, ideas or hints will be highly appreciated. No hurry, i just have to be finished tomorrow :-) Best regards /Conny
