ExcpHook 0.0.5-rc2 released
Author: GynvaelColdwind # Views: 2438

Yesterday I've finally got some time to finish the changes in the new version of ExcpHook. So, version 0.0.5-rc2 (rc2 of alpha ;p) is ready for download, and might be even usable ;D

ExcpHook Exception Monitor is an exception monitor, made for Windows XP. The monitoring part is kernel-level (technically, in a driver), so in opposite to user-land monitors, ExcpHook does not have to be a debugger for the monitored processes, nor it doesn't have to change their environment/code/data in anyway. Additionally, ExcpHook is not tied up with one process - it monitors every process in the system, letting the user filter out the interesting processes by providing a part of the image name of the process.

Download (source + binary): ExcpHookMonitor_0.0.5-rc2.zip (220KB)

An example of usage:


c:\Tools\ExcpHookMonitor_0.0.5-rc1>ExcpHook.exe excp_
ExcpHook Exception Monitor v0.0.5-rc2 by gynvael.coldwind//vx
(use -h or --help for help)

Aha, What a coincidence! I open the website to search for the previous version of this tool and what I found is a new version of it posted yesterday, how cool!

Anyway, thank you for your contribution to the community and I would also like to say that I really enjoy reading your technical stuff. So, please don't stop making contribution :-)
