Well, to address this, it is theoretically possible for me to roll my own message queue that is attached to the windows queue for monitored events, and sends messages to the window wherein the window has registered that message with the package. This is an addendum feature to the methods I've been working on to make the threads independent of the window's message queue lifetime.

I know this solution works, and as my internal queue is a C structure, the C thread that sits on one end the queue is extremely lightweight. There might be other solutions too. Jason is correct, for most people I doubt that the message queue would become full, especially on XP - but when it does happen it's a right pain to track down the problems it causes. We need to do more testing in real world situations to see how likely this situation arises, especially on boxes pre XP. Cheers, jez.
