One of the first useful things you will want to do when in the bowels of ring
0 is attack the thing from a debugger point of view. In my case I like using
Windows Debugger [windbg] (hey its free, fully functional and does remote
debugging really well), and found it neccessary to find a way to have it work
with VMWare.
