Deye 50 Posted February 9 (edited) Hi, Not sure if I understand how a compiled script loads Like if there is any protections implemented - to some level at the loading time Or is it that there shouldn't be any special difference if I simply include my functions at the beginning the script for protections and this has nothing to do with what the compiler does or adds or could do in the PE header .. Functions that will act like: for instance : https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1090943/Anti-Debug-Protection-Techniques-Implementation-anhttps://www.codeproject.com/articles/30815/an-anti-reverse-engineering-guide One more thing: https://www.pelock.com/products/pelock Section: Compatibility with antivirus software what can possibly be made to make things work as mentioned there trying to find any good leads on the topic Thanks Edit: I'm guessing these kind of things are done with a PE Wrapper\packer here is a list for some available packers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_compression#List_of_packers I understand most are not all suited for an autoit compiled script .. and offer very little compared to pelock The autoit compiler offers the /no/pack option what can be a plan to extend its options and have it do other stuff with added features as in pelock I'm after being able to run some custom made functions at the Wrapper time For instance get an HWID string and run it against some other string to check if it correctly decrypts to some protected string All in all that it can be protected to some level, especially from wannabe hackers @ thriving to solve the false positive alerts as well ..
