I'm excited to release version 0.3.05 of PTFinder to the public. This version fixes an endianess issue. It provides support for dumps that where obtained while under the effect of the Intel Physical Address Extension (PAE). Also there's a ready-to-run binary available for the Microsoft Windows platform.
PTFinder didn't execute properly on big-endian machines. This should be fixed now, though I'd appreciate more testing! Thanks to Andy Joyce for bringing this issue to my attention.
Also PTFinder didn't support the Physical Address Extension. This was a documented limitation. I couldn't see any need to support it. Richard McQuown and Carsten Maartmann-Moe reported strange issues, where PTFinder failed to detected any processes beside System and Idle. Finally I was able to reproduce the issue. It is most likely related to a target system running in PAE mode.
In non-PAE mode the CPU's CR3 register points to a Page Directory (PD). The PD occupies a whole page, hence it is aligned on a page boundary. However, when in PAE mode, CR3 points to an array of Page Directory Pointers. The array is not aligned on a page boundary. Consequently the alignment check failed and made PTFinder reject the process candidate.
The new version applies a relaxed check which is tailored to the PAE mode and also works in case of non-PAE images. If this causes any false positives and you're absolutely sure to not work on a PAE image then the --nopae reverts to the old behaviour.
Abstract Analysis was undertaken of trends in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in Australia from 1980 to 2002 using Australian Bureau
of Statistics data. The results showed a decline in the SIDS mortality rate from an average of 195.6 deaths per 100,000 live
births in the period 1980–1990 to an average of 96.5 deaths per 100,000 live births in the period 1991–1996 and 51.7 deaths
per 100,000 live births in the period 1997–2002. The Poisson regression coefficients for SIDS fitted to the rates at the Australia
level indicated that the Reduce the Risks (RTR) campaign led to a significant decline of almost 40% when contrasting the pre- and post-campaign periods. Despite recent
suggestions that the fall in SIDS rate has been due to natural variations in incidence, the data clearly show that the decline
in SIDS rates coincided almost immediately with the introduction of the RTR campaign and has been sustained over time. There
was no evidence of diagnostic transfer or of a postponement of death from infancy to early childhood years. Unless this dramatic
fall was caused by as yet undetected factors, the campaign is the only plausible explanation for the markedly reduced SIDS
rate in Australia.

Abstract The distribution of the ketone bodies: acetone, acetoacetate, and d-β-hydroxybutyrate, between blood, vitreous humor, spinal fluid, and urine was examined in 105 medico-legal autopsies. The
ketone body concentration in the body fluids was determinated by head-space gas chromatography. The correlation between blood
and the body fluids could be described with regression lines on the logarithmic-transformed results. The correlation is dependent
on the ketone body concentration. The ketone bodies in spinal fluid show the best correlation to blood, followed by vitreous
humor, and last urine. The concentration dependence in spinal fluid is mainly due to ketone bodies being metabolized in the
brain. The human brain utilizes ketone bodies during normal nutritional state. In vitreous humor, the dependence is mainly
due to protein bindings of acetoacetate and β-hydroxybutyrate in blood and the difference in dry matter between blood and
vitreous humor.
