Fredrick Diggle's code was signed by Fredrick Diggle himself. How much
more credibility do you want?

my friend Izee from the EOF-Project(.net) team has coded a

using its own API made for it.

Does he realise that he must be Admin first?
Then he he can just disable the service, or delete the files, or
whatever.
Using the API doesn't gain much here.


the thing is, that microsoft says, that ONLY SIGNED processes can do this,
this
is a lie, nothing more and in my oppinion this opens an attack vector and
provides
common insecurity...
