Grr! I want to get the stack data, how would I do it?

not sure what you mean.. but stack is just a block of memory. two ways you can do it. you could pop it all off into a big array. but it would be quicker to get pointer to top and base of stack ( esp and ebp respectively), this is assuming that you did not just set up stack frame then do MOV instead. since move is a lot faster than push + pop

bear in mind the 'top' of the stack, ie. esp is actually at a lower virtual address than the 'base'

I'm using AMD Athlon 64 X2 Processor.

Don't worry, the stack will work the way Slugsnack described. You really shouldn't worry about what I said since no one uses motorola or MIPS processors anymore.

wait.. re-reading OP.. what are you trying to do ? copy entire stack ? or read off parameters that a function takes by an inline hook ? ( in this case 0x4000 )

yes yes acronym semantics it would've lead the OP to a better understanding of stacks...FILO is the correct acronym..yet none of you could come up with the code... hmm why is that?

perhaps because i have him on msn and helped him there instead ? why you being a dick all of a sudden.. just because irwin was an asshole to you doesn't mean you have to vent your frustration on everyone else
