Thanks for this answer. I will probably use Maslevskiy's code together with a FileSystemWatcher instead of a timer, and I am tempted to use a windows service for this sabotage protection utility, so thanks for that link aswell.
As I said to Maslevskiy, I am NOT writing a virus, but a parental software. thanks again!
