Makes sense, but most examples state to store hModule at this point...
however your suggestion was good, and I can now hook wndprocs.

Sadly it then crashes explorer.exe, but thats another problem for me to
look into.

Thanks very much.

I can now hook the wndproc OK, but I don't think it is being called.
I test this by coding a tight loop (up to ten trillion or something) and
watching the load graph in process monitor.

I can make the load shoot up before I hook, and after I hook, and before
I call the hook, but if the loop is in the hookproc, the load never goes
high before it crashes.

It crashes when I do the first sendmessage after hooking.
