------- Additional Comments From focht@gmx.net 2007-24-05 12:31 ------- Hello,
well times change fast nowadays. That statement was made before a prelimary ntoskrnl component was added. Though being largely a stub and many api missing is looks doable in future.
I'm currently working on StarForce 3 which lets other copy ring0 protections like "Kinderkram" (trivia) :) Lots of work need to be done - outcome yet unclear. With ntoskrnl/winedevice matured, one can actually try lower priority apps that ship with kernel drivers.
For the priviledged instructions ... yes, vectored SEH + emulation is the way to go. I already added some ring0 instructions that other drivers use (TLB related).
Regards
