Okay, I am writing a service that monitors the file system on one of
our servers and I can take of that in a cinch. However, I found no
properties or methods available to see who the user is that controls
the process performing the deletion. I also need to know what
application is doing the delete. I only want to know when a user is
manually delete a file through windows explorer. Any suggestions? Any
P/Invoke hooks?
 
Hello, Phuff!

Actually, to accomplish what you want you will a driver.
Another way, using 'little hack' is called dll-injection. Using this technique
you can intercept calls to Win32 functions ( e.g. DeleteFile(...) ).
