Welcome to the forums.

When what program starts?

For something like this you would need a program that is running constantly and doing nothing more than checking for active processes. This is more the work of a service rather than a program.

Thx for the reply...

Service sounds good. Never done that in VB6 thou.
Was more into a systray prg.
But my question is, how do you write code to detects this?
What API?
Please, for the love of god, help me

Well, if you want to spend a lot of time banging your head against a wall, and tearing out your hair, then go ahead an create a service using VB6.

It can be done, but it is not for the faint hearted.

This is something more easily accomplished using C/C++
