Hi Folks,

Our corporate security scan (Veracode scan) did not like the fact that EO.Internal seems to be using user32.dll.SetWindowsHookEx, it appears that call is used for DLL injections (rootkits, worms). Anyway, if you can, can you tell us why you are using SetWindowsHookEx so we can pass it on to our security zealous guys, and may be they will leave us alone (the headaches of a large corp!). Thanks

Hi,

We use SetWindowsHookEx in order to monitor the application messages in order to implement a number of features. For example, the hot key feature relies on this:

Thanks!
