Changing the executable file name then XP theme effect is not effective

<< < (2/2)

courage:
Aha! I got it!  :D

I found the reason why the XP theme effect won't be effective when the executable file name changed. Because of the file name is the same as the system file name such as "svchost.exe" or "spoolsv.exe", the effect will not be effective.

I am not writing a virus, I am just writing a time contorlling tool to limit the working or playing time and wanna kids can't close it form task manager. This way to fake a system process looks very stupid, I know.

I have tried to inject dll to "explorer.exe" process and the anti-virus software always caught it. I also tried to promote the privilege of the tool, but it never works. :cry:
