The question is: can HIPS detects process hollowing?

"Process hollowing is a technique used by some malware in which a legitimate process is loaded on the system solely to act as a container for hostile code. At launch, the legitimate code is deallocated and replaced with malicious code."

ESET's HIPS is a disappointment. Compared to better behavior blockers, it's hard to configure, it's clumsy and it doesn't really catch much without bombarding the user with questions.
