Re: Source Code grabber???

Do you mean a decompiler? A debug build will contain the source code, but you may or may not have a debug build.

Re: Source Code grabber???

It depends on what language the program was built in. C#/VB/C++.NET software will decompile and even contain the original comments. This is why the authors should obfuscate when creating programs built using .NET.

For any other language you might be able to find a decompiler. I believe you can decompile just about anything to ASM, however, I have no experience with such things.

Re: Source Code grabber???

oops sorry for postig in wrong place

Yeah it would be great to be able to find out what language the program was writen in ?? NotePad ??

I thought that all programs where secure and locked up so you cant just go and unpack them ?? or that would be cracking i guess ?? or is that just paid softwares ??

so its possible just to go get any program and take it apart to get the source code out of it then ?
Thats Great lol
Im on about VB source mainly to so thats good news
