Hooking is the practice of re-directing the flow of a program causing it to execute a code-cave or function in an injected module in place of another piece of code. In this tutorial, I will cover a method of hooking known as IAT (Import Address Table) Hooking. IAT Hooking is a 4 step process (I assume you are able to manage to inject the attacking DLL on your own).
