DLL injection is not an intentional design feature - it's a hack and as such 
is open to problems.  Hence, most serious developers either i) go with 
madshi ii) go lower down the chain i.e. below the win32 api's.

If you need any particular help feel free to e-mail me - i've done a huge 
amoutn of work with injection and hooking
