hi

i shouldn't be asking it. it's a stupid question but maybe some body could help me..



i wanne make a dummy program for zonealarm mcaffee norton

it kill's the real one and replace it with the dummy one so you think it's running but it isn't

does anyboy have a idea how to program it or does have source or even does have a binaire file..

every info is welcome

tnx

Just curious, do you mean create an exact copy of the program, but have it effectivly do nothing? Perhaps one could reverse all the scanning / protection etc code right out of the program. Either way, getting it to the target computer would be the hardest part.

I think it would be enough when there is a process with the same name and an tray icon, or am i wrong ?

Hrm, who know. If you at leaset get the color scheme right you'll fool most grandmas

maybe you can make 3 different programs (za, nav, mcaffee) which ONLY run in the systemtray (you can extract the icons from the .exe files orso)
so they just do nothing

then you'll have to find out which of these 3 is running (maybe using the findwindow functions orso)
and if you found these, then you can make your program that it runs 1 of the 3 dummy progz

i don't think it'll be as easy as it sounds though

maybe there are other, better ways to do it. this is the first thing i'm thinking of

yeah that is what i'm looking for that a dummy program kills the normaly av stuff and replace it with the fake one..

just (filtered) the life of the admin and make sure his AV or firewall will never start again take a good firewall/AV killer en make sure he can't find it

wouldn't it be easy to make a loader ... it load the ico ?


but does anbody have a fake/dummy program..?
