Listening for broadcast messages

Hey,

I wrote a small console application that sends out broadcast messages, but I
cannot find a way to listen for these broadcasts in another application.
How can I achieve this?
I found some info on msdn but thade made use of multicasting and I need
broadcasting.

Thanks in advance

If you mean normal Windows messages sent with BroadcastSystemMessage,
you should be able to listen for them by overriding WndProc in one of
your forms.
