Question

I keep getting multiple verification prompt from a 3rd party application where on many instances I have to select the prompt window, type my password and click on Ok. I thought of writing a simple application in WHITE framework which can capture the window, enter my password and deliver a click automatically.

I need to detect whenever a new window has popped up in Windows environment. I don’t want to use either a timer or a loop. Can I get an event when ever a new window appears (registers) ?

Outside of managed code you could use global WindowHooks, however this involves injecting a DLL into another process space.
This is not easily done with managed DLLs (read: assemblies). (It can be done, see here)

I wrote an article on CodeProject a while ago on how to create a sort of managed global hook for WM_CREATE and WM_DESTROY messages.
It includes full source code and it probably has what you need. Your application will need administrator privileges for this!
