Is it possible to inject a DLL file into a process such as explorer or svchost using C#? I know this is possible in C++ but is it in C#? If so would it matter how the DLL was written, e.g. would it differ betweeen a C++ DLL or a Visual Studio C# .NET DLL? If this is at all possible could someone post the code that I could use to do this. Thank you very much.
