I have to reverse-engineer the communication between a Windows-System

Is there any chance to get a copy of the RAW USB-Datastream from the
device to the software managing the device on my harddrive?

I thought of something like a modified USB-Driver für Windows or a
Hardware-Device that records or mirrors the USB-Connection. Any hints
helping me to avoid using a Debugger?


I don't know if it does the trick, but have you looked at strace for
windows? You can hook the device driver and see all the raw I/O. (If you
know *nix, just like that strace -- more or less.) I also have heard that
there is a truss for windows, but I don't recall having seen it.

There are a couple of versions of windows strace. I think I have been
using BindView's:

Hope this helps.
