Complicated project I'm working on - -

The game I'm trying to hack makes signed HTTP requests to the game server. I can use CE and some other tools to see these unencrypted requests in memory. These requests include a 'signature' line - basically the HTTP request hashed with some secret key. The server rejects all requests that are not signed with the key.

I want to try to walk backwards from this signed HTTP request and eventually figure out where it is being signed so I can get the key.

Any pointers on this? I think the best place to start is to figure out what is writing the HTTP request to this memory address, but don't really know where to go from there.
