RE: Event Log Object

The event log can only tell you that a new event was written to a log, not
specifially that an event you are interested in was written. Many management
tools use this signal to get all new events and then filter.
However you can use the WMI event provider for the Event Log that
essentially does this for you. Your register a WMI query for the event IDs
and source for your app, and then get call-back with the event.
Look at System.Management classes.
here's one example I found

or in script
