Hi all

I want to do in my application something like we have on ICQ. when you close
the application it doesn't close.

I've done like that

Private Sub Form1_Closing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Closing
e.Cancel = CancelFlag
If CancelFlag Then
Me.Hide()
End If
End Sub

and i've put in a exit button click that

cancelflag = False
iconn.Visible = False
Me.Close()

it works just fine... but when i try to close the windowsXP with the program
running it won't close.

what can i do?
who to know if the close event comes from window or from the user?

You can detect when Windows wants to shutdown/... and allow closing:
