Reading Memory Streams
|
What would I use to read an application in memory, say I loaded Notepad, it shows under my applications as notepad.exe, so I know its in memory, now I want to read the binary data.
Reason why I am asking is that I want to play around with writing a header reading application similar to anti-virus, so I can learn how they work and maybe write my own.
Getting the files from the hard drive is easy enough, but right now I can't seem to figure out how to read the first few bytes in memory on all the files, I know it has to be simple and I must be overlooking something.
VB.Net 2002 or VB.Net 2003 (I own both professional versions)
Thanks ahead of time!
