hmmmm,

How has this topic shifted from writng code in MASM using .WHILE and similar and turned into analysis of various disassemblies of what appear to be kernel code ?

Let admin know and the topic may be re-opened if we are satisfied with the answer.

LATER : I have had a satisfactory response to the question so the thread will be reopened. Just make sure it does not turn into something else.

oh-oh hutch is on the prowl best tone it down guys  :dance:

Hi Steve,

Thanks for re-openning the topic, it is one that I found interesting as Vortex is an excellent programmer and a formidable person to debate with, keeps the blood flowing and the mind sharp.

Thank you hutch.  If anything I do don't seem right... if possible, delete whatever parts you feel will drawn malicious people to the thread.  I personally will not be upset. Pass or present ...

I have already edit it out because of your immediate concern. Those good participants that already viewed and downloaded the file have something interesting to investigate.  It may help in finding out more facts about and replacing [.while] and [.repeat].  Hopefully the subject will continue and someone will post other respectable solutions after investigating those finding.

asmrixstar, what do you mean about Exe packing code.  Since you got that much faith I will definitely read Icz PE Format Tute but right now I don't see no relation to the subject ...  I don't think anything could discourage me in my step to go 100% opcodes in an application. I may have to use a few macros but that be fine as long as I learn how to use them and see what they are doing.

Also, I hear the Lion ROAR and never plan to hear it AGAIN.  I just stumbled on something while learning how to use a tool i never used before.  It pump out something that seems unknown... Nothing more.  Nothing less.

donkey, do you think Vortex macro is the only way to go in this situation ... I never worked with macros other that what's in masm32 examples (m2m).  I'll try to get a crash course on it tonight.

Shantanu Gadgil, Shantanu Gadgil, Great to be back.  Thanks

asmrixstar, I totally see your point.  I'm reading Icz PE Format now and it was fully related to the file i was working with.  Anyway, y0da is/was deep, I figure long before he studied well and produced that file back in the year 2000 when everything was basically STILL new technology... WoW, what a mind.

Win 95 did not take effect until around 1997.. It took a life time for people to move beyond Win3.1 ... ( suppose .net or the future do that to US ... We would CRACK for life )

Anyway, I plan to move on and should have no problem adapting these suggestion to standard [.WHILE) asm examples, one i get this tute in mind.

Thanks asmrixstar Icz PE is getting more interesting.  I'm beginning to wonder  *Do it ever END*
