Capturing the right click event on the desktop

Hi,

Is there any way in C# that enables me to capture the right click event (on
the desktop for example) and add some code of my own on each of these events
?
Thanks,
Cooly M.

NAFAIK. You're not programming an application here, you're actually
reprogramming the operating system, so I think that the WinAPI is your only
