If you are working on a Windows application, all you have to do is create an account at the Microsoft error reporting service, and you'll get all the error reports for your applications through the Windows Error Reporting Service.
It only requires to sign your releases with a certificate. You don't need to develop anything special within your application.
I would prefer something platform-independent and something I've more control over (eg. not every user wants crash reports to be transmitted automatically to a website). In the moment I would give google-breakpad a try although it doesn't come with any documentation. Boris
