Your given link open only google page

Yep. This is where you start doing all kinds of research on the subject so you learn something.

This is NOT where I direct you to a code sample that you can copy'n'paste into your own project.

I'm afraid it won't work with C# or VB.NET. As far as I know if the hook is global, it should be installed in a native DLL. So OP would also need to use some language targeting native Windows API.

There's a MSDN article on it, albeit pretty old!, at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc188966.aspx.

Thank you for sharing. This article focuses only on local hooks though.
The problem I mention is related only to global hooks.
