    Reading memory of current process

    I would like to read the memory of a current process.

    But since the "Memory - Private Working Set" (value in task manager) is always changing how to know the size of memory to scan?

    On this forum, we generally don't like to answer questions of this type, due to the fact that this sort of activity is often associated with hacking/cracking.
    What can this strange device be?
    When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
    It's got wires that vibrate and give music
    What can this thing be that I found?

    If someone has to ask how to haxor on a public forum, they're not going to get far anyway.

    You don't. Even if its size never changed, how would you know what addresses to read, hmm?
