Windows API hooking project to log all the windows / UIs with the exact timestamp when they are opened.


Why someone would do this?

Maybe a stupid story but it happend exactly like this... I was working on my PC and from time to time there was a window poping up. This window was just showing up some milliseconds till it was gone again. Just the right time to annoy me but not long enough that I could find out what it is about. This is why I started this project to determine where this window is coming from and how to get rid of it.

Is this malware?

I know some Antivirus and Malware protection tools detect this and say it is a suspicious software. Possibly some malware authors also use API hooking or this technique to do something bad. But this is truly not the intention of this project.

I just used it to find the popup window which disturbs me from working and that it really doesn't do something evil, you can see if you look on the code :)
