If you're into program-it-yourself, there's an example at

http://www.developerfusion.co.uk/show/4630

that captures a screen shot and saves it to a file, using VC# and .NET 
(available free from Microsoft in an express edition).  The wait and do 
it again part should be trivial.  The author claims that the down 
loadable source code contains a VB version as well.

Note that while I've dabbled a little with VC#, I haven't used this code 
so I can't speak to it's accuracy or quality.
