    Essentially, it's the same approach as one would use to write a firewall.
    Perhaps you can find a FOSS firewall for windows, and study the code.

    Just replace the "go-no-go" decision of a firewall with some kind of "now-or-a-bit-later" decision.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
