| 240149 | 2004-05-29 06:41:00 | As mentioned, it is NOT possible to decompile vb6 code into anything intelligible. The best you would get out of a VB 6 decompiler would be assembly code, and that can't be read in anything that would reconstruct the VB source code. Earlier VB versions used an intermediate code, which could be decompiled to a degree. |

| 240150 | 2004-05-30 03:06:00 | Are there anyway to look at the code if the program has been made by vb.net 6? | yingxuan (3330) | ||
| 240151 | 2004-05-30 04:02:00 | Ask the person who wrote the code for a copy. :D Disassembling object code is not for the faint hearted. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 240152 | 2004-05-30 04:25:00 | Vb6 and VB.NET are to different versions of VB. VB 6 is version 6 and VB.net is version 7 (i think). There code s slightly different as well, VB 6 is way easier to use | dwnz2003 (5250) | ||
| 240153 | 2004-05-30 04:27:00 | yeah vb 6 .net i fink.Ah im confused.didn't know there were two versions | yingxuan (3330) | ||
| 240154 | 2004-05-30 04:30:00 | There are 2 version, One is called VB 6 and the Other is called VB.NET, VB.NET is the latest version. They have nothing to do with each other Daniel |

| 240156 | 2004-05-31 21:19:00 | asm makes my head hurt... i took part in a hacking competition once to try beat the password protection for a program - i stared at decompiled code for about 8 hours in one day. In the end i just wrote a brute force program that went through thousands of combinations such as aaaaaaaa, aaaaaaab etc >_< and got it in 3 hours! Decompiling isn't worth it, ask for the source code from the author or if they don't give it to you then don't bother, theres a probably a reason they don't want you to see it! Plus if they're smart they would've included a license agreement with the program and states that you can't reverse engineer/decompile it. - David |
