My project is a remote admin server app similar to VNC.
Using various sources i have been able to do most of the things i want in my project
Take a regular screen shot of the host machine
send it to the client and display take the clients mouse cursor cords and keypress and move them on the host so i can basicly take control of the host machine remotely
but whilst my app is connected to one another i want to disable the host machines keyboard and mouse
if not disbale just ignore all their calls until my app disconects and returns to normal

any suggestions as the rest of the program is nearly complete i just need some examples of ignoring mouse and keyboard calls or intercpeting them
any help will be grateful

Sorry, but those kinds of things are way too "trojan like" for our taste. Try searching someplace like PSC.

i understand your concern
but as you can se i am looking to only hook the keyboard and mouse controls and set them to null or whatever i need whilst the programming is running dont want to disable keyboard or mouse till a reboot like ive seen examples cause if the program crashes i want the guy at the host machine to be able to carry on using his computer without needing to reboot

just point me in the right direction of what i need to be doing to hook the messages

Nevertheless, I'm concerned that while YOU might be OK, others who read this thread may not be.

I'm going to suggest that anybody who wishes to answer your question PM you rather than post.

In fact, I think I will close this thread.
