Hiew+ – Editing process memory with Hiew hex editor
What’s is Hiew+
Hiew+ is based on the FsPlus project. FsPlus is an implementation of an idea that allows you to access non disk files as if they were disk files. Hiew+ is a real life example of FsPlus where we take Hiew (an excellent hex editor) and turn it into an excellent process editor. Each process will be viewed as a file with a size as much as SYSTEM_INFO.lpMaximumApplicationAddress returns. In theory FsPlus should work with any hex editor to provide process memory editing, but this release is just Hiew ready.
Usage
To use FsPlus, you need to inject FsPlus.dll into Hiew’s process memory so that the APIs are hooked. After APIs are hooked, FsPlus will recognize and treat in a different manner any file name that has the following form: “pid|1234” where 1234 is a given PID. To make the usage even simpler, I provid a small GUI (FsPlusGui) to allow you launch Hiew conveniently.
In fact, Hiew+ can be considered as a nice addition to your reverse engineering tools arsenal (IDA Pro‘s debugger or any other debugger, etc.).
Here’s a screenshot of the FsPlusGui:
You will need to double click on a process to have Hiew or the desired process launched with FsPlus support.
Make sure you specify the settings correctly in FsPlus.ini:
[settings]
title=Hiew+ (c) lallous <lallousz-x86@yahoo.com>
hookdll=.\fsPlus.dll
launch=c:\hiew\hiew32.exe
Features
After you run it successfully, you will be able to start editing processes as if you were editing files. The catch is every process virtual address is now a physical offset in Hiew.
Modules as IMAGE_SECTION_HEADERs
For your convenience we have created additional IMAGE_SECTION_HEADER structures in the PE header of the main process, so that each loaded module is view as a PE section:
Textual information about process’ modules
In addition to viewing modules as PE sections, you will have an actual representation of all loaded modules just after the end of the PE header:

Available in print or e-book editions from Amazon.
No Read Errors
To avoid reading errors and such, any unreadable memory page is filled with “BAD!” pattern.
Physical and Logical disk editing
This is not something added by FsPlus, rather it is a undocumented feature of Hiew32 where you can use Hiew to edit/view logical and physical disk sectors:
Conclusion
This tool has been tested with Windows Vista (32) and Windows XP SP2 and with Hiew 7.29.
Hope you find this tool useful as Hiew itself.
Note: Please don’t contact me if you run into trouble. This tool is no longer supported.

The difference between hell and heaven is a mindset
An old teaching tale goes like this: A young man wanted to know the difference between Heaven and Hell.
The sage led him to two rooms with observation portals, one labeled Heaven and one Hell.
Looking in at Hell he saw a banquet table filled with luscious food but the people at the table were emaciated and distressed. Their spoons had long handles to reach the food, but the handles were too long to bring the food to their mouths.
Then he looked in on Heaven. Same table full of luscious food. Same long spoons. But the people were healthy and happy and using their long-handled spoons to feed one another.

The 2017 World Predictions – Between reality and illusion, between today and tomorrow
Last year, out of curiosity, I decided to translate the predictions of Michel Hayek for the year of 2016. The article proved to be popular so I decided to do a preliminary translation of the 2017 predictions.
Disclaimer:
- I am not a professional translator and I do this as a hobby.
- I do not claim the accuracy of the translation below.
- I did not translate everything. I skipped many things including predictions of events that are very local to the Arab region and Lebanon.
- Please watch the original video with the help of an interpreter if you want to know about all of his predictions.
As Michel Hayek said in his interview, the title of his predictions for the year of 2017 is:
