Decompiling - 1llusion - 12-13-2010

Hey guyz!
Wanted to decompile a program, but Im new to it and I dont know in what language the program was coded, is there some mluti-decompiler for this? Thanks Biggrin or how do I find out in what it was coded?

Open an exe in Notepad (or NotePad++), then search for bottom text:

msvbvm60.dll (or similar) = VB6 Application
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Editors (or similar) = .NET Application
(None of these and dll names at almost the EOF) = C/C++ Application

However, packers and obfuscators are there for a reason. They will make it difficult to find out. Smile

Look for OllyDebug, it decompiles executables in Assembler language.
