SystemEvents.InvokeOnEventsThread

Has anyone used SystemEvents.InvokeOnEventsThread?
The MSDN documentation is a little vague with regards this method.
I am trying to detect and respond to changes to the desktop (like moving
desktop icons around, mouse events on desktop, etc) and was wondering if I
could use the above method to trap such events.

The alternatives I have looked into are system hooks but this requires
coding a c++ dll... yuk!

Thanks for any help.
