FileMon [1] is good for monitoring File I/O operations within Windows (and
Linux I believe?), can set the filter to monitor a specific process opening
and closing files, etc.  As for offset the write occurred at, could probably
modify to see what values are passed to the calls that the VxD monitors.
Not too sure.

Subject: Capturing a programs file output.

Hi

Can anyone suggest a freeware tool for Windows that can log:

a) The file access of a selected application, such as opening,/closing of
files, what is written, and if possible the offset the write occured at.
b) Access to a selected file by any application.

Either capability would be useful, but preferably both. Timestamping would
also be helpful.

Thanks.
