I want to know how to:

1. Get the desktop (the actual screen) using DirectX

2. Get the pixels from the desktop

3. Set the the pixels on the desktop

I want to be able to do this without using a form and on DirectX 7.0 or higher.

Here is what I want to do for a program:

Scan every pixel on the desktop, then overwrite certain pixels depending on their color.

I want to be able to do this fast and effectively without the user noticing the application.
