Resurrecting this thread, because I'm looking for this exact functionality. Were you able to make any headway?
Just a simple Skin with a console log being updated by the Administrative Events view from Event Viewer would be sweet. 8-)
I was - sort of, anyway - but didn't pursue this further for the time being, and it's been a while since I wrote these so things are not fresh in my mind at this time. The best I could come up with when I posted this was a synthesis of various ways to do it, each with a drawback that doesn't normally allow a feasible "real-time" monitoring. You can check it here (see the comments and the description for details):

That's about the only thing I've done in this direction since then (others have tried similar things as well, as you can see in that thread). It's far from perfect, but at least can give you some ideas or offer a basic platfrom on which you can adjust. Other possible avenues might involve some AutoIt / AutoHotKey script trying to get such infos (if it can, of course) and sending them regularly to the Rainmeter skin (the latter part can be done like here). So, long story short, I'm not yet at a point where I tackle this with all guns blazing, so to speak, and I don't know if I'll be. In any case, IF I'll ever find feasible ways to do this and other things like monitoring the nework connections of processes in the future, they will be present in my skin suite. There's no deadline for that though.
