Hi Guys,

We're starting a new custom project right now from a client and one of the requirements is the process cannot be terminated unless the system is shutting down, restarting, or logging-off.

This application monitors the USB interface. We will be using WMI to query the device periodically.

The client want's to run the application on Windows XP Operating System and doesn't like installing .NET. So we targeted Visual Basic 6 as our language.

My main concern is this application cannot be terminated. Our Project Adviser talks about Anti-virus and yes, some of the anti virus cannot be terminated. I was thinking how to do the same in Visual Basic 6. I know there will be API involved on the project but where should I go? so API is ok with me.

I saw some articles that converts the EXE to a SERVICE, create Windows Service in Visual Basic 6, etc.

So please .. share your thoughts.
