Inactivity Timer
-
Ok, listen here. I have an application which code I cannot access. It has an Inactivity timer which is running. If I dont touch the pc for more than a certain ammount of time a message will show and log me out. Id like to know how to stop this by writing some code to make it look as though someone is active in windows when really they are not. The only thing i can think of is creating a timer and sending some sort of message to windows to make it look as though we are active. Thanks in Advance.

I don't know much about the subject, but I imagine API hooking is what you need. Check out this article for example http://www.codeproject.com/cs/system/WilsonSystemGlobalHooks.asp Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks Dinobot_Slag, we are on the right track. I need to figure out now how to send like a wm message or somthing so that the hooks being used by the application will see it and believe we are active.
