Monitoring windows processes

Question

I'd like get a notification if a particular process starts. For ex., if xyz.exe starts in the background, I need a messagebox stating the same.

I'm a little familiar with Windows Hooks in VC++. Can someone point me to some similar links or methods to achieve my goal? Thanks.
