prevent click with mouse hook

Primary I need to prevent VLC ActiveX plugin2 goes to fullscreen after double clicking on it. Unfortunately VLC doesn't have any possibility to do this itself (some suitable method, dblClick event, setStyle...) so I found this post where you can read that "The only solution at the moment is to use a mouse hook".
In this example http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;318804 in MouseHookProc method can I replace

return CallNextHookEx(hHook, nCode, wParam, lParam);

with

return(-1);

in order to preventing calling next hook? Now I know that running VLC is acting like another program and it isn't part of my winForm, so I need something like "global mouse hook". Please do you know how to modify above example? (maybe some very simple WH_MOUSE_LL low-level hook example for newbies)

Thank you very much :)
