[shell-coding] Re: Undocumented APIs on MSDN

They're all listed here, I believe:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnapiover/html/api-overview.asp

The best part is this: (under several functions)
"Although you can access this function by using LoadLibrary and
GetProcAddress combined in Microsoft. Windows. versions prior to Windows
XP, the function is not accessible using the standard Include file and
library linkage. The header files included in Windows XP Service Pack 1
(SP1) and Windows.NET Server family document this function and make it
accessible using the appropriate Include file and library linkage.
However, this function is deprecated and not intended for general use. It
is recommended that you do not use it in new programs because it might be
altered or unavailable in subsequent versions of Windows. "

Straight from undocumented to deprecated.  "Ok, we'll make it easier to
use, but you shouldn't use it."
