I've read some articles about this, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. With that said, here's the scenerio and a couple possible solutions (and I would like you to tell me which may be better). This should be a pretty simple task for someone with the know-how. Scenerio In AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), when you choose the Font Options in the user Preferences, the Color Dialog pops-up but is only set to allow Solid Colors for the Font and IM Window Background. The custom colors button is disabled. Solution 1 Create a DLL that can be injected into AIM that overwrites the Color Dialog settings AIM is using and uses the Color Dialog settings from the injected DLL instead (enabling Custom Colors). Solution 2 Create an EXE application and DLL that will allow the user to set custom IM Window/Font Colors. *** I would like this done in Visual Studio .NET/C++ and well-commented so I can learn the process and continue to build on it! Deliverables: 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.

Maybe I can help you. I've been working on couple of projects and I used API hooking by changing IAT. I'll download AOL IM and see what I can do. I'm working with Visual C++ 6.0.
