Q: 

Why does my global hook fail on Win7??

Hello,

My global keyboard hook (kh.dll) works fine on Win7 to get keystroke of programs running as administrator privilege. However for other programs running as standard user the hook fails with an error window prompt. If I start the host program (kh.exe host the hk.dll) as standard user I can't set the global hook. How can I get keystroke for non-administrator programs?

Thanks!!!
