Yep, critical to this is not what happens to the matching messages but what is being done (or not) with messages that don't match.
I would expect to see an 'else' which repeats the call to PeekMessage but without the PM_REMOVE flag.

Not sure which message MadExcept uses, it could well be outside of your message ID range.

A little more info. I have MadExcept operating and it detected “The application seems to be frozen.” 77fa15ec ntdll.dll KiUserCallbackDispatcher 77e1567d user32.dll PeekMessageA KiUserCallbackDispatcher is where it is hanging.

I’m using the following code inside a wait loop so that most messages are processed except for some mouse and keyboard messages (I think) which I don’t want to be processed. It’s working perfectly here but for another user it hangs indefinitely. If PeekMessage(Msg, MainForm.Handle , 0, 0, PM_NOREMOVE) and ((Msg.message < 160) or ((Msg.message > 264) and (Msg.message < 512)) or (Msg.message > 524)) then Application.HandleMessage; I use to have an Application.ProcessMessages but this was causing a problem which I can’t remember now, and this code fixed it.
