Try AutoIt. It's a much cleaner language than AutoHotKey and provides equivalent functionality.

PStart has an option to scan any directory for executables and will automatically add them to the menu. I use it to manage my portable drive, very good software.

Well if i simply must throw subtlety out the window, the link is from the ARTeam Forum.

Disreputable websites?
Sorry, was a bit unclear there. I found the link to that page on the disreputable website. Just for clarification, ntcore.com is NOT a disreputable website.

Well, yay once again for disreputable websites. Here is a link containing a LOT more info from a very talented reverse engineer Daniel Pistelli. Much thanks to him for his work on this.

Perhaps if you have some examples one of us could whip you up something. Did you have any particular standard you want to follow? Which browsers are your primary concern? Do you need dynamic content? etc are also relevant questions.

Good GOD who the HELL designs this stuff? I just spent 1.5 hours on Vector, and were i not so seasoned at ignoring the call of WoW, i would have been playing for MUCH longer. Someone just extract my eyeballs right now, because if i ever see that screen again i will end up dieing of malnutrition or something.

All the info we really needed was contained in RichSignature.txt attached above I think. Nothing more to know it, but thank you :)

Ehtyar.

1109
you could also try Winspector.
I lost faith in it just recently, because it doesn't seem to work on vista :( And no updates it seems :S

Ehtyar.

1110
I was referring to the one that displays the download details in the statusbar on mouseover. The other one (that lets you run external apps) I'm not sure how to apply to fox my problem.

Ehtyar.

1111
Interestingly enough, the tool i believe you're looking for also comes from NirSoft: WinExplorer.

Ehtyar.

1112
In practice it would probably just be easier to let th download start and check the file size on download statusbar and cancel it if it's too big or whatever. But thank you, and I think this add-on may be of help in other scenarios.

Ehtyar.

1113
I see. Not sure how this solves the problem thought..could you be more specific?

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: SendMessage Plug-in
« on: January 24, 2008, 04:57 PM »
Sorry for the trouble Ehtyar, but FARR and foobar users will eternally thank you for this. Its only because your plugin is good that it is in demand.
Hell, it's just nice to know someone actually uses it at all. Hopefully it won't be too long...
Of course this isn't as important as a lot of developers probably think, since the window class namespace is per-process and not shared, but hey :)
My point exactly...

Ehtyar.

1116
I do, and love it naturally. My problem is seeing the file size BEFORE i choose to download it, as any other browser does....

Well, after discovering that Verizon is the b**ch and not woodmann, i wget'd the attachment off my site shell and did some very interesting reading. Contrary to my assumptions "compid" is compiler ID, or version number. It would seem that the rich signature contains relatively benign information compared to what i first suspected. For those who wish to read further into it, I have attached the woodmann attachment to this post, and if I in future decide to pack my linkers (I have 6,7,8 and 9) I will be sure to post the details for everyone.

Ehtyar.

That addon wasn't accepted  >:(. I listed a half dozen reasons. Find me a better one!! Quick!! :P

Ehtyar.

1119
you're welcome, Ehtyar. that's Firefox for you, nothing that an add-on can't fix.. :)
Uh uh uh  :eusa_naughty: you forget about my thread on getting firefox to show the size of a download. Got ya there eh?  :P

Ehtyar.

1120
Open In Browser is the PERFECT solution, I had this totally idyllic solution worked out in my head, and this is pretty much it. Thank you very much lanux!!

Ehtyar.

1121
It's been bugging me now for a while, but this time I've resolved to actually try to do something about it. Certain types of plain text files are not displayed in firefox, but rather prompt the user to download them. This annoys me most when you're scouring the net for source, and every c/cpp file you come across you have to download to view. I am tired of this behavior and would like to know if anyone is aware of a way to view a given filetype in-browser despite any file associations or headers. Please reply to this thread if you have a solution for this.

Thanks, Ehtyar.

Nor have I (I hate foobar, but the mouse b**ch made me write aliases for it) but I will update them none the less, give me a few minutes....
-later-
Well it would seem I've forgotten how much I also hate the author of foobar2000. In his long standing tradition of being an ignorant pain in the behind, he has not only changed the class of the main window (who the hell uses a guid for their window class?) but has also changed the IDs of each of the menu items i was using to control the player. To add insult to injury, it seems Winspector does not work in vista, which happens to be running on the only computer I have access to at the moment (not my own, don't worry ;)). Soon (hopefully) I can try this again on an XP machine, but until then you can try the foo_winamp_spam plugin which should allow you to use the winamp aliases with foobar until this problem is resolved.

Wow, i seem to be neglecting to mention pieces of information I've already found. Asterix's removal tool no longer works as the bytes that require patching have changed (a different register is used in the targeted piece of code) as of vc 05, but thank you for the link. Naturally woodmann is being a b**ch to me, so i will have to wait to pass judgment on the attachment, but I'm salivating right now.

If you're interested in setting the brightness of the entire screen, you can try the Windows gamma ramp API. I've used it myself, very helpful.

someone make a utility that lets us swap our info for that of bill gates.
Well the rich signature shown in the image in my first post is from cl.exe, so perhaps just substitute your rich signature for the one found there. Make their head spin a little if they ever wanted to know who made it.
Did someone there got some insight about what it's contained in the signature? Personal information about the owner of the computer in which the program was compiled, or what? And hidden underneath which scheme?

Mmmm, the page is not working at the moment :(
This was actually mostly what i was looking for. As much as i would like to say I'm an uber reverse engineer, my skills are nowhere near that level. I have picked up hints that the information is hardware-related, so things like MAC address, OS serial number, CPUID etc are likely candidates and the information is then encrypted with, of all things, xor. This information could be discerned by REing link.exe, but as I said, I'm just not that good.
The topic appeared several years ago at the ASM Community, dunno if it's possible to dig up the stuff (should be easier after we installed Wordzillas search mod :)), one of the members iirc reverse-engineered link.exe enough to prevent generation of the information.

I started work on a little tool to nuke the information post-link time, but never really finished it (as in, it nuked a hardcoded amount of bytes at a hardcoded file offset, so it won't work for all EXEs).

Indeed. I have already found instructions on preventing generation of the signature, at the location mentioned in my last post (google for "disable rich signature") but as i said earlier, my question is simply related more to knowing more about the signature itself, and what it contains and/or is used for.
Thanks for your posts guys, this is getting interesting :)

Ehtyar.
