pro_vb thread: Loading encrypted EXE at runtime


Message #1 by "Satyajeet Hattangadi" <satyajh@m...> on Fri, 24 Jan 2003 11:38:04 +0530
Hi,
Just wondering if this is possible.
Ill create, say 3 standalone VB exe's. Once im done ill use some encryption
algo say like blowfish and excrypt the 3  binaries , rename the extension to
say ".plg"  and save these encrypted files to disk. Now i create one "shell"
application whose menus will have the sole purpose to read the".plg" file
decrypt it and run the exe contained in it.
Now the tricky part is i dont want to save the decrypted binary on  the disk
and run it.
I need the binary code to be decrypted in memory and somehow run *without*
saving the decrypted contents to disk
Can this be done using the MS- script control?? guess not.. coz itll run the
source code right and  not the binary??
I hope im not ambigious in my description.. In case i am let me know ill try
to rephrase...
Any ideas??

Thanks in advance
Satya
