And what function do you suppose FileSystemWatcher is based on? You
know you've been working with .NET far too long if you can't figure out
what Win32 APIs are being called behind the scenes. Every .NET call
eventually interfaces with Win32 APIs.

Here's a hint: DirectoryChangesW(). It only works for WinNT and it has
major issues.

The only thing I've ever seen that works is FileMon. SysInternals has
long since stopped publishing the source to their various monitoring
utilities and nobody ever bothered to save the old versions. People
simply pointed to SysInternals' website and said, "Check this tool out -
it even has source code". However, based on what I've read, things like
FileMon are going to be impossible under 64-bit Windows Vista due to the
alterations in the kernel-mode driver architecture.
