Yesterday was first release of HackFramework library under license of LGPL. I would be glad if you made some code review and told me what you think.
I also wrote two pages about compiling and "cracking" so you can look there and see it doesn't lead script kiddies to use it in malicious way. I hope you will trust me now :) 2009/6/22 Cerebrus <[email protected]> > > While moderating the messages in queue, I spent some time reviewing > your post (and all the threads in your Group).
