PocketMatrix

I'm certainly not an expert when it comes to Assembly / Machine language, so hopefully someone can shed some light on this for me. I'm piddling around with loading PEs manually. I thought that code (text) sections were simply memory-mapped into virtual pages as-is. However, I've noticed that some sort of translation occurs at load time (with ARM binaries), because some byte pairs are being modified. Exactly what is the OS doing to the code pages when they are loaded?  Thanks!<br><br>Dan East

Copy protection scheme, Dan?

I could tell you, but then I'd have to shoot you. <br><br>Dan East

... PE's ?

PE is an acronymn for Portable Executable.  It's the file format of a loadable code module (.exe, .dll).  If you're really curious, read article on the MS MSDN website.<br><br>
