Dear Friends,

I want to extract DLLs dependency from malware using dependency walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/ ("http://www.dependencywalker.com/")).
I don't know, Does obfuscation can affect on dependency walker output or not?

Thanks.

As far as i remember it works by analysing the imports...
If the malware is packed, the imports are usually minimal which will probably give crap results
