  1. quick question about including the signature by k2enemy · · Score: 0, Redundant
    sorry if this is horribly ignorant...

    inserting the signature into the exe will change the signature of the file, so don't you need to know the (exe + embedded sig)'s signature before embedding anything? how?

    thanks in advance for any explanations.
