Message-ID: <19971021155430.AAA21870@creitzel.ne.highway1.com> (raw)

Check out Chris Becke's page on icmp programing at
http://www.dbn.lia.net/chris/icmp.html .  He has hacked the add-on DLL
Windows uses to handle ICMP packets.  The page has a .ZIP file containing
source and a decent discussion of what's involved.

Cheers,
