It's a combination of the F4 key code combined with the alt modifiers, you need to check both.
But i'd avoid trying to prevent it if I was you....

Knowledge is power -- But experience is everything
If I remember correctly, Alt+F4 never reaches PreTranslateMessage()
If you are forced to reinvent the wheel at least try to invent a better one!

Here's the list of virtual key codes. jencas makes a good point that I was wondering about myself. Still, give it a try and let us know what happens.

Seems pretty simple to me, add this to the dialog message procedure, and windows shouldn't handle the ALT-F4.
