Find handle of another application's menu (vb .net)

Question

I want to make a program that will disable menu items of an appication for parental control using user32's enablewindow function. Using spy++ I can find buttons, controls etc, but I cannot seem to find menus and menu items. How could I find the handle for these so I could disable them when the user trys to click on them? Thanks

I think this can be done (not very sure!) by hooking WH_CALLWNDPROC and handling WM_INITMENUPOPUP or WM_INITMENU messages. Some related discussions can be found here:
