Net 4.0 has actually added the AppDomain.FirstChanceException event. It fires before any catch block is executed.

This MSDN article has some examples.

Basically you just add an event handler like this:

    AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FirstChanceException += 
        (object source, FirstChanceExceptionEventArgs e) =>
        {
            Console.WriteLine("FirstChanceException event raised in {0}: {1}",
                AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName, e.Exception.Message);
        };
