    Hi all,
     If you are interested in some stealth shellcode I did a talk at defcon 8
    and CCC congress covering shellcode encryption, nop sled obsfucation and other
    techniques. I never released a whitepaper, but I do have the presentation
    up which shows the concepts and some simple example code.

    Sorry in advance for the powerpoint, I can make it into textfile later
    this week. K2's library is pretty nice, I saw it a little before
    CanWest. I believe he also included my multi-byte nop instruction
    stacking. Very sweet library. My presentation just shows different
    techniques.
