(Yet another) Memory dumper

I wrote a simple process memory dumper recently. Actually, it started as a in-memory string replacer, but I'm only posting the dumper part for now - the rest is in a terrible mess. ;)
The dumper saves all process memory to a single file. It uses NTFS sparse files though, so any non committed memory range does not use physical disk space (sparse zeros). It also checks process handle for access entries limiting VM operations and can print a nice memory map. Nothing fancy, but just what I needed for some work.
It's officially 32-bit only (DWORDs for addresses etc), but seems to somewhat work with 64-bit processes. I'll do a proper 64-bit version later (maybe ;).
Sample output:
c:\code\MemoryDump\Release>MemoryDump.exe explorer.exe v
Searching for target process...
Failed to open process 0x0: 0x57
Failed to open process 0x4: 0x5
[...]
Checking target process' ACL for problematic entries...
Opened \Device\HarddiskVolume3\Windows\explorer.exe as PID 0xb30
Target process suspended, 31 threads
Proceeding with memory dump
