Gambit, thank you very much for the code.

It compiled immediatelly, but I had to change one constant
to get the code work.

Instead of:
> && ((lParam & 0x0000FFFF) == 0) // Skip if it's a repeat 

I used this:
&& ((lParam & 0x40000000) == 0) // Skip if it's a repeat 

Can you please confirm that my change is correct...

I also have few more questions:

* What is the main reason for using CreateWnd() and DestroyWnd()
and not FormActivate() and Destructor, for handling hook
activation?

* Also, what is the main reason for testing HandleAllocated()?

I ask this because I experienced that my original program (that
used my old DLL) sometimes left the DLL in a state in which
DLL could not be deteted by uninstall procedure, and I'm
sure that I had the RemoveHook() on every possible place that
app could exit.

Now, I'll send the new code to one of my friends to test if this
new approach is safe for other apps ;)




Best Regards,
Vladimir Stefanovic
