How to veto suspend and shutdown request using C#?

Hi, I am writing a program that absolutely need to veto (cancel) any suspend and shutdown request initiated by user. Is there any way to do this in C# using managed code .NET 2.0 seems to only give PowerModeChangedEvent and doesn't give any option to veto.

Before you ask, yes, I am aware that a program should never veto a suspend request, but I really need to. And yes, I am aware that veto is no longer supported in Vista (which is fine as my program is specifically for XP).

Thank you very much.

Trying using SystemEvents.SessionEnding. It's a cancelable event so you can use it to try and suspend the shutdown.

SystemEvents.SessionEnding takes care of log-off and shutdown. What about standby/hibernate Seems like PowerModeChangedEvent is not cancellable using managed code Thanks.
