Why don't you read the actual thread content? If you had followed the conversation between myself, Ostros, and Alaron, then you would have seen us discussing how swapping a dll could lead to it obtaining information on unassociated processes. This would require the code in the dll to hijack the Everquest process and inject other code into the web browser (or whatever it's trying to access). This is where the topic of process hijacking originates from.

Mmmhmm. Are you familiar with Blizzard Entertainment's version of this type of snooping? Or SOE's that was pulled from the project back in 2001-2002 I believe.
Rather than run covertly, Blizzard has the executable "Warden.exe" run on your computer alongside Starcraft, Diablo, and WoW as well I believe (can't confirm WoW). Google warden.exe and get educated on the vast history of snooping and detection.
AV has never detected warden.exe as malicious despite the fact it is exactly similar to what SOE was trying to do in 2001-2002. So not sure what this AV argument is about, looks like another derail.
