Monitoring Application Health with WMI and .NET
Visual Studio Home: Monitoring Application Health with WMI and .NET
"The Windows Management Instrumentation framework is one of the least publicized yet most useful tools in the .NET Framework. If your job is to create enterprise class software, you don't need to lie awake at night wondering whether your application is still running. In this article, Francis Shanahan shows you how to build enterprise class peace-of-mind into your .NET software and finally get the sleep you deserve!"
A nice article on using WMI in VB.Net. Not only how to consume WMI but also how to instrument your app to produce data to other WMI consumers.

You're welcome. Thank you for writing it.
I've been digging WMI for a while now. It's really one of the unsung hero in Windows.
There is JUST SO much you can do with it...
The Process namespace has helped me dedug a number of leak issues in my VB6 apps. Now with VB.Net is so much easier to use, it seems silly more people don't.
