Microsoft Detours library can be used to attach a hook to system functions invoked by Windows programs. You can write an arbitrary code which will get invoked when a program tries, for example, send something over SSL, or get a current timestamp, and handle it as it pleases you instead of (or in addition to) passing it to standard Windows libraries.
Hopefully notes below will be useful for fellas who, like myself, are not skilled Windows developers, but occasionally get thrown into the Windows world and need to intercept a function call or two.
