Stop windows shutdown

To all,

does anyone know how to stop windows shutting down the computer? I.e. when
a user didn't save all his changes and windows tries to shutdown, the user
gets a messagebox to save the changes.

After this windows will shutdown.

If you are writing a user-level app, search MSDN (.NET Filter) for
"PowerModeChangedEventHandler".

If you are writing a service, search MSDN (.NET Filter) for "ServiceProcess"
and/or "ServiceBase".
