I know there is a namespace System something that allows a Windows Desktop solution to check for logout on the desktop, and it will raise an event in the running .Net solution. I am sorry.

I know I saw this when I was using Google to search out another .Net solution. > i want that my form remains till the windows service is not stopped You may be able to use an OnCustomeCommnad() in the service. If the service is not active when you call the Service's OnCustomeCommnad() from your Windows desktop solution, you should be able to dectec it on a try/catch, which would be in the Logout event of that (Logout event) I am talking about.
