Hi,

This is trivial, maybe also world-wide known, anyway:
a stackguard-like protection can be implemented
in a quite portable way:

Sorry to all the list, expecially to the authors
of ProPolice.
Unfortunatelly it seems that I want plagiarize the work
of the team that some time ago described the ProPolice
stack protection method.
This is not the case, really. For a concidence I proposed
the same idea, indipendently. I developed it some day ago
in order to make a protection for a program that I developed.
Only some minutes ago I read the ProPolice paper, and realized
the mistake.

You can find the ProPolice paper at the following URL:
