monitoring an XP shutdown event


Recommended Posts

Hi folks...Does anyone here know where XP stores the "Shutdown Time" of a pc? I am busy compiling a Bandwidth Monitor program and need this information to display the correct amount of downloaded bytes through the NIC...

Thing is, using the ""netstat -e"" command only shows the bytes since PC startup...meaning that everytime the pc is restarted, it will start from scratch...

thanks hey...

Ticks since last restart:

; Get current ticks since last restart in $avTicks[0]
    Local $avTicks = DllCall("Kernel32.dll", "dword", "GetTickCount")

Note that counter rolls over to zero about every 50 days.
