    Question Embed browser dont receives mouse "click" events

    Hello folks!
    I gotta a crazy "bug" that is driving me crazy!
    I'm programming an Itunes plugin for windows.
    The point of my plugin is to show an embed browser in the plugin's window(HWND).
    Nowadays it shows the browser and I can go to websites, and so on. But there's on problem... The embed browser cant get the mouse input events. It gets the keyboard events, but the mouse "click" events it just ignores.
    I'm thinking that the Itunes is getting the mouse click events and consuming them.
    Anyone knows how can I resolve this?
    Maybe there's some way to get the mouse events and redirect them to the plugin's window.

    Please help me.
    kkkk

    Yep, I looked a lot at it, but every thing that I do fail.
    I've tried to use setCapture(), passing the pointer to the window of my embed browser, but when I click i crashes the app.

    O.o

    And more, I tried to use releaseCapture(), after i used setCapture() to my embed windows and after I tried so simulate a mouse event.
    Nothing... the mouse moves... but no click, mouse over works perfectly, but no clicks...
