FilterFoundry 1.6b1 for Windows Hotfix
3
======================================
4
 
5
The two most severe bugs in 1.6b1 can be hotfixed by editing the binary file.
6
All bugs have been solved in 1.7+
7
 
8
(1) Patching memory bug 1.6b1
9
 
10
Problem: FilterFoundry crashes at start if the computer
11
has too much RAM (maxSpace variable calculation).
12
Emergency patch: Disable "DoPrepare" function
13

17
Fixed in SVN Rev 106, main.c, method DoPrepare (published in 1.7.0.1)
18

20
(2) Obfuscate loading bug
21
 
22
Problem: Obfuscated filters can be built, but not be loaded.
23
The problem cannot be easily solved, therefore it is
24
the best to prevent the option.
25
Therefore, remove the obfuscate checkbox using a resource editor.
26
 
27
Fixed in SVN Rev 106, load_win.c, method readPARMresource (published in 1.7.0.1)
28
 
29
Reason: Tried to edit LockResource memory. But LockResource memory
30
is read-only. Therefore, you need a copy. This is impossible
31
to be done using a hex-patch. Need a recompile!
