Description

InjectedDLL is a small utility that displays the list of DLLs that are automatically injected on every process in your system.

More Information

DLL injection is a quite common technique used by many programs and utilities, so the fact that you have injected DLLs in your system doesn't mean that something is wrong.
The following type of legitimate programs may use DLL injection technique:
  • Programs that listen to keystroke on your systems: Macro recorders, key loggers, and so on...
  • Programs that listen to mouse moves and/or change the default mouse behavior. For example: Volumouse utility uses the vlmshlp.dll for listening the mouse wheel moves, and use it for changing the sound volume.
  • Debugging and diagnostics tools. For example: Microsoft Spy++ utility
  • Security related programs: Firewalls, Antivirus programs, AntiSpyware programs, and so on.
  • Programs that are well integrated into Windows environment. For example: Babylon translation software uses CAPTLIB.DLL in order to activate the dictionary with mouse buttons and the keyboard.

In addition to the above list, DLL injection may also be used by malicious programs (Viruses, Trojans, Spywares).

Important Notice

Each time that you run InjectedDLL or you refresh the DLL list, you may see a small square around the mouse cursor that appear for short period of time, and then disappear. You may think that it's bug, but it's not...
Although it may sound strange, this small window is used to detect the injected DLLs list. Due to the fact that some DLLs are only injected when the mouse cursor moves over a visible window, this "dummy" window is displayed in order to force these DLLs to load. Also, be aware that this window is created by a child process named dummywin.exe

This utility works on Windows 98/ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
