Detecting application startup and exit events
Hi,
I have written ( using VS2008 c++ ) a windows service which sends information about PC usage to a central database, as part of a PC availability setup. I have been asked to add the following functionality to it:
1) What applications are most used, when and how long for, and
2) What web sites are being accessed, again to find the most popular etc.
My main question is, what functionality is there to trap application start / close events from within my service ( just need the application name ), and secondly, would somebody be able to confirm that, as I am already using sockets to send information to a PHP script on a server, the best way to see what web pages are being accessed is to build in a packet sniffer, and extract the information from that.
Thanks in advance
