One way is to override WndProc of the form. I used this method in tray application to monitor if Windows was shutting down. Here be the code:
Private Const WM_QUERYENDSESSION As Integer = &H11
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As Message)
If m.Msg = WM_QUERYENDSESSION Then...
ByRef (By Reference) and ByVal (By Value) are ways of passing a variable as a parameter of a function/subroutine. The ByRef statement passes the variable so that whenever it is changed in your function/subroutine, it is changing its value throughout the program. The ByVal statement passes the...

MyBase.new() activates the new constructor of the base class. Basically it creates a new instance of the base class from which you inherit....Which would be the System.Windows.Forms.Form class because your class "Main" inherits it.
In case anyone else is interested in WMI, I use the WMI Guide @ http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/wmi_start_page.asp . Very very helpful guide that has everything you could possibly want to know about WMI. I also own "Windows Scripting with WMI" from...
I do believe i tried playing with the nothing keyword but i didnt get anywhere with it. The problem is that WMI can return a lot of different datatypes and i declare an object variable to handle this, but if it doesnt return anything it goes crazy on me. Perhaps i can add some checks to it to...
