What is the best and most straight-forward method of triggering a thread when a new USB 'thumb' drive has been inserted into a computer. We are trying to restrict custom backups to only certain 'blessed' USB drives. Any hints on how to either monitor a device list, etc. would be most helpful. I'm all done except for being able toto wake up a thread when a USB drive is connected. thanks.
