Sweet, that sounds like a good method. Is there any other methods they could use to access functions of the OpenGL DLL? I'll probably need to account for all of them haha.
EDIT: I found a method used to 'hide' these DLL files, here's the code that they appear to be using:
Code:
// CloakDll - by Darawk - RealmGX.com
//
// The purpose of CloakDll is to allow the user to hide any loaded
// module from the windows API. It works by accessing the modules
// list stored in the PEB, and subsequently unlinking the module
// in question from all 4 of the doubly-linked lists that it's a
// node of. It then zeroes out the structure and the path/file
// name of the module in memory. So that even if the memory where
// the data about this module used to reside is scanned there will
// still be no conclusive evidence of it's existence. At present
// there is only one weakness that I have found in this method.
// I'll describe how it may still be possible to discover at least
// that a module has been hidden, after a brief introduction to how
// the GetModuleHandle function works.
//
// *The following information is not documented by Microsoft. This
// information consists of my findings while reverse-engineering
// these functions and some of them may be incorrect and/or
// subject to change at any time(and is almost definitely different
// in different versions of windows, and maybe even in different
// service packs). I've tried to make my code as version independant
// as possible but certain parts of it may not work on older versions
// of windows. I've tested it on XP SP2 and there i'll guarantee
// that it works, but on any other versions of windows, it's anyone's
// guess.*
//
// GetModuleHandle eventually calls GetModuleHandleExW, which in
// turn accesses the native API function GetDllHandle, which calls
// GetDllHandleEx. And it's not until here, that we actually see
// anything even begin to look up information about loaded modules.
// Whenever GetModuleHandle is called, it saves the address of the
// last ModuleInfoNode structure that it found in a global variable
// inside of ntdll. This global variable is the first thing
// checked on all subsequent calls to GetModuleHandle. If the
// handle being requested is not the one that was requested the last
// time GetDllHandleEx calls the LdrpCheckForLoadedDll function.
// LdrpCheckForLoadedDll begins by converting the first letter of the
// module name being requested to uppercase, decrementing it by 1 and
// AND'ing it with 0x1F. This effectively creates a 0-based index
// beginning with the letter 'A'. The purpose of this is so that
// the module can first be looked up in a hash table. The hash table
// consists entirely of LIST_ENTRY structures. One for each letter
// 'A' through 'Z'. The LIST_ENTRY structure points to the first
// and last modules loaded that begin with the letter assigned to
// that entry in the hash table. The Flink member being the first
// loaded beginning with that letter, and the Blink member being the
// last. The code scans through this list until it finds the module
// that it's looking for. On the off-chance that it doesn't find it
// there, or if the boolean argument UseLdrpHashTable is set to false
// it will begin going through one of the other three lists. If, at
// this point it still doesn't find it, it will admit defeat and return
// 0 for the module handle.
//
// Weakness: The global variable inside ntdll that caches the pointer
// to the last module looked up could be used to at least detect the
// fact that a module has been hidden. The LdrUnloadDll() function
// will set this value to 0 when it unloads a module, so if the cache
// variable points to an empty structure, the only logical conclusion
// would be a hidden module somewhere in the process. This could be
// resolved by using the static address of this variable and simply
// zeroing it out. However, this would make the code specific to only
// one version of windows. You could also scan the address space of
// ntdll for any occurences of the base address(aka module handle)
// of the module you're hiding. However, this would be slow and it
// would clutter up the CloakDll_stub function, because it'd have to
// all be done manually. And i'd have to either use a static base
// address for ntdll...which would probably work on most versions
// of windows, however I really don't like using static addresses.
// Or i'd have to manually locate it by writing my own unicode
// string comparison code, to lookup ntdll in the list by it's name.
// Realistically though anyone trying to detect this way would run
// into the same problem. That their code would not be version
// independant. So, it's unlikely to see any largescale deployment
// of such a technique. However, anyone who would like to solve
// this problem themselves is perfectly free, and encouraged to do
// so.
