I'm doing some research and am hitting a little problem. Basically, I want 
to be able to detect when an interactive session is starting. On a notebook, 
there are a number of ways this can happen (under, say XP):
1. Ordinary system log on.
2. Logon through the screensaver mechanism.
3. Return from a hibernate.

To detect these states one seems to have to do different things (like 
rewrite the GINA, produce your own screensaver, detect the POWER messages, 
etc).

Is there one consistent and overall mechanism by which one can detect the 
start/return to an interactive session?

Thanks,

John B
