Yes please provide a small and convenient one. I need it in one of my auto modify scripts.

Ok, that was the longest hour of my life :D

Anyways, here it is.
Usage: rh2rc.exe infile outfile

Has some basic error checking, and might have some bugs (it's the first version).
Give it a shot and reports any bugs you find please.

We have purposely made the code messy in some areas to make it more difficult for people who want to rip our website, as we grow our website will further be the way that our clients and potential clients identify with us, and is a key component in our branding strategy. The last thing we want is people ripping it, and while they can still rip the website as is, it is more difficult to rip now than if the code was super clean.
-stucano (August 13, 2009, 01:03 PM)

Believe me, it's easy enough to rip it as-is.
BUT, for example, I use a screenreader, and your site is barely accessible for me. Web standards are there for a reason!

Hi DC,

I am writing a script to modify chrome.dll using Resource Hacker, here's the script:
[Select]
ResHack.exe -extract chrome.dll, test.rc, 9,101,
ResHack.exe -modify  chrome.dll, chromenew.dll, test.rc, 9,101,

The log says

ResHack.exe -modify  chrome.dll, chromenew.dll, test.rc, 9,101,
Error: Invalid resource type.

Anybody know why?

BTW, any free commandline tools for extract and modify PE's resources?
-electronixtar (August 18, 2009, 04:34 AM)

Hello!
As far as I know, ResHacker does NOT support importing .rc files.
You can try this free nifty tool by XPero to make a ResHacker script, or compile the RC file to a RES file (and then use reshacker to modify it), using for example, the free Pelles Resource Compiler
(Attached here [attachimg=1 ][/attachimg]or can be grabbed from the Pelles C Compiler website])

Have fun reshacking!

I'm not sure, but I think this drivers will do fine:
If they don't, please post the device's VENdor and DEVice IDs (Device Manager, Properties, Details view, Device Instance ID).
The string should look like this:
PCI\VEN_XXXX&DEV_YYYY&(some more hex here)

You got these 1-900-INEEDCASH phonenumbers. But I wonder what combo's are possible at my own mobile number? Or home number. I want software where you enter a sewuence of numbers, and then it will look in a word list for words.

Is that hard to do? I would think of this as a webservice, but software would be fine.

Activation/License/Language Help / Re: Suggestion: Use DC login instead of keys
« Last post by scancode on August 01, 2009, 03:23 PM »
This of course assumes that all computers that will use the software have an internet connection that can be used for this and there is no firewall that could block it, that isn't under the user's control.

What does one do when they want to install something on a pc that has no internet connection and never will? Or on a pc in which a firewall a user has no control over will not allow the app to phone home to complete the registration. They will no longer have a key they can enter that will activate it.

This is the first issue that comes to mind. I am sure if I thought about it some more I could come up with others.
-app103 (August 01, 2009, 03:08 PM)

If it can't automatically download the lic key, offer the user to use the normal key input.
That might fix it :)

Audacity will do the job just fine. Leave a shoutout if you need help doing it.

Small warning: I did not check but if they want an email address be aware. They like to advertise their stuff too much.

Sadly said, I had got older version of this application back in 2002 and gave them my email. Even now I am receiving their newsletters. Sometimes one per week, sometimes more (dozen). I did try to stop subscription but it work for half year. So… be aware ;)
-fenixproductions (July 04, 2009, 09:04 AM)

a) You can opt-out of the newsletters on registration page.
and b) http://lifehacker.co...able-gmail-addresses

Living Room / CPALead - Annoying "website monetization" tool, and how to get rid of it.
« Last post by scancode on June 21, 2009, 10:22 PM »
CPALead is a web service that allows you to pester your users, forcing them to complete surveys before they can use your premium content.

They also block you out of a site if you use ad-blocking software or have JS disabled.
cpalead-demo3.JPG

This is how their overlay looks.
cpalead-demo.JPG

To get rid of it, you can type javascript:closeeverything();void 0; into your address bar, or add it as a bookmarklet.

Living Room / Re: Firefox Personas - Can we get a Donationcoder one?
« Last post by scancode on June 15, 2009, 06:05 PM »
Nice Scancode, but not quite...

The personas usually require a header and a footer. I don't know default sizes or if a larger image would autosize to a smaller resolution, but I digress...

I was thinking of the DC home page banner for the header. You know, the thing that goes from binary gibberish to that nice gradated blue, but without Donationcoder.com and the stuff in the middle. Maybe move that to the side.
For the footer, something a little different, maybe a slightly different color, and involving Cody...


-Edvard (June 15, 2009, 06:01 PM)

Nope, they don't autosize, and they have some nice templates available ( https://people.mozil.../personas/designers/ )
Header anchors on topright corner, footer on bottomleft.
