I will certainly take a look. Detours isn't cheap. But it does support 64-bit now, and if I recall, Itanium support is either ready or will be ready shortly. Note: I'd be certainly interested in a Detours-replacment. The must-include-dummy-Detours.DLL requirement from Microsoft is a nuissance, not to mention the sticker shock. -Le Chaud Lapin- |
