Message capture program

[Thyme]

I'm looking to automate some things and the tool I have is capable of sending messages to windows, but I don't know the messages. Does anyone know of a free tool to let me monitor which messages are being sent while I use the program and capture them?

if the messages are being sent to a network-address: port, you could use a syslogd server.

I've heard heard good things about "kiwisyslog" but haven't used it myself.

I'm talking about Windows... This program does it, but it is not free.

I found a way to do what I wanted to do now, but it'd still be interested in such a tool if anyone had one.

i think apps like Girder hook into specific apps -- like winamp, wmp, etc.

What app(s) are you wanting to intercept messages from/to?

Does that only work on specefic apps?

I don't really have anything I need it for right now since I got what I needed to work another way.
