I heard in another forum that we should be careful in reading memory (in our bot) for protected online game like Wow cause it may be detected.

Just wonder, from a technical point of view, how is it possible anti-cheat programs know I'm reading (say calling windows ReadProcessMemory() ) another process memory? This Windows API call should be transparent to the user processes right?

anti-cheat programs hook the readprocessmemory api call so they know when something reads it. There are of course methods to bypass that, e.g kernelmode or dll injection
