I thought Luka was pointing out the Microsoft crash dump format because
it's easier to analyze with WinDbg etc. Not for acquisition reason, if it's
for acquisition reason that's exactly the same. That's why one of the
reason Microsoft is encouraging people to use 64-bits, even though of
course PatchGuard can still be bypassed. No security mechanism is perfect.
That's the cat and mouse game we all know very well. :)

 Yes, but how does the change in format alter the function of Luka's
 NtWriteFile hook, except to give him less information to scrub?  Of course
 you could roll your own IRP_MJ_WRITE and bypass NtWriteFile.  But then Luka
 could use his file system filter driver, or ask Peter Kleissner for a copy
 of the open source Stoned bootkit and adapt his lower disk/ACPI/ATAPI
 filter driver for the task.
 The format of the output isn't the problem.

 George.
