ZoSTeR Posted July 11, 2004 Author Posted July 11, 2004 There is a new build of PEiD (rename the exe to Helper.bin). But no new installers are being identified as far as I know.Selfextracting CABs could be added to the identification strings.Anyway here's the AutoIt source (behold the sophisticated code ) :USSF.au3
ZoSTeR Posted July 11, 2004 Author Posted July 11, 2004 To add PEiD to your context menu for exe files use this:[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell\Identify with PEiD\command]@="\"C:\\Program Files\\PEiD\\PEiD.exe\" -hard \"%1\""PEiD Command line Options--------------------peid -time // Show statistic before quittingpeid -r // Recurse through subdirectoriespeid -nr // Dont scan subdirectories even if its setpeid -hard // Scan files in Hardcore Modepeid -deep // Scan files in Deep Modepeid -norm // Scan files in Normal Modepeid -ext // Scan files with external signatures onlypeid <file1> <file2> <dir1> <dir2>You can combine one or more of the parameters.For example.peid -hard -time -r c:\windows\system32peid -time -deep c:\windows\system32\*.dll
Nologic Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 May I ask why you would need to know what the switch's are when you already know its a MSI file?
totoymola Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 it didnt even recognize a .msi If it's an msi, you don't have to use USSF because you already know the switches of an msi. If you need to know more switches that your msi supports, you should use an msi editor and browse/edit the properties in the property table.
Alanoll Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 May I ask why you would need to know what the switch's are when you already know its a MSI file?indeed. You already know that it's an MSI, why would you need a switch finder to tell you?This program's purpose is for foreign installers or non-normal ones. MSI is definately not in that category.
Nologic Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 muiz -Not to get down on you...just you phrased your statement wrongly...in which you kind of knock the project...and also expect things beyond what the project was meant for.Yes it would be nice by all means if it reported MSI files, and maybe I or some one else will alter the source code to reflect that...since it is public.Any ways refer to the Unattended Guide for the bulk of information about switchs.If you need at the drop of a hat information dealing with MSI's just open up the console '{WIN+R}cmd{ENTER}msiexec /?{ENTER}' and full details will be listed.

I agree MSI are too easy to spot and is not a foreign installer. Actually its native. Anyway I think it is not necessary to modify the app NoLogic but do what u will.
CyberSlug Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 Greetings from a long-time AutoIt user but new MSFN Forum member:I've attached a script with the following modifications:Hides the PEiD window a bit better by setting the StayOnTop registry value. (I thought about enhancing the SplashText window, but ended up just commenting that out.)Displays information for MSI files If StringRight($FileName, 4) = ".msi" Then Run("msiexec /?", "")Optionally takes a command line paramter. If you use AutoIt to compile the script into an EXE, you can can simply drag-and-drop the installer on top of the EXE to get the information.USSF_mod.au3
Nologic Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 CyberSlug -Thanks for the update to the code & good to see you visiting.
totoymola Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 Hello CyberSlug.Nice update. Does this work with the latest version of PEiD? Honestly, I don't use this because PEiD is more than enough for me. But it's still good to have this for educational purposes.
