"Files sniffing" with .NET

Hi,
Does someone know how can I develop an application that tracks all files and
directories activities in my computer?
What I mean is that I want to develop a tool that runs in the background and
pops-up whenever files or directories are being deleted, renamed, added,
etc.
Where should I start from?
Thanks,
Tom.

I've not used it myself but I'm pretty sure that if you take a look at the
FileSystemWatcher it will help you out.
