Interesting project !
great work I was just thinking if one could export a bootblock to BinHex, we could save bootblocks as text files. If MD5 for each Bootblock is known, we know we have a authenticated way to recreate disks. Can one imagine a whole DMS/ADF converted to XML format ;-) |

hi jasonver2.0
your program does not check that the file is not locked by another application before reading / writing eg: "Test Run in WinUAE BB" if %temp%/temp.adf is already used by WinUAE Since my previous post I found many errors in the database but I did not take notes, sorry. Overall, you forget that the virus (80%) mutate after each contamination... ![]() If you like challenges, there is a very rare virus, which has so far never been identified (not sure ![]() ![]() |

Sad news because I use your program regularly. I hope someone will take over. You plan to provide your bootblock collection too?
In any case thank you, you helped me a lot for my own program ^^ |

New update:
- The detection of the entire family of viruses "Lamer Exterminator" has been reworked (decoded version removed!) Note: Numbering based on VirusZ III - Changed the name for many virus clones common - Remove some unnecessary space characters - Some unimportant things ^^ - Alphabetical sorting of the database If these changes cause regressions, thank you for the report here. bb.brainfile [2013-02-25] removed Last edited by Crashdisk; 02 March 2013 at 09:01. |
