Does anyone know of a way to detect when another process has produced an
exception? Is there any way to tell from their state or is there some sort of
message passing involved? Persumabley there must be a mechanism I can hijack
as Dr Watson currently manages to log all of the exceptions.

Thanks

Sure: Write a debugger. I think source code for WinDbg (debugging unmanaged
code) as well as Cordbg (debugging managed code) is available online.
