Visual Basic Program patching

Unfortunately there are two drawbacks

1. from where I'm P2P is firewalled
2. installing devpartner for a small program would copromise the system (once uninstalled) for nothing !

IDA is great because has no installation, just an xcopy in the java phylosophy.

It seems to disassemble partially correctly, but all the resources as fucked up (gray color) and also I think some of the code that creates dialogs and so on..much probably the only part that IDA dissassembles is some C++ code inside a VB program..duh!?

Also Olly has the same problems (again the same non-setup wonderful feature)....

I found the VB6 script for IDA from wasm.ru:

hxxp://www.wasm.ru/tools/20/vb6.zip

There used to be a group on Yahoo called 'ActxLic' or something like that (witout the quotes). Have a dig around it may still be there. From what I remember it was excellent.

You can use IDAPRO to dissasemble a VB Application.
There is no problem if you have a VB file that is compiled in "native-EXE" Form , but if the file is compiled in PCode Format then you must self
tranlsate the code , or you can use the WKT-Debugger.

The best way to use IDAPRO is to find a plugin , if you have a PCoded VB EXE File...
