After reading the "Virus Alert Message" thread in these forums I found that a compiled exe actually spits out the original batch file to "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\btxxxx.bat" and runs it from there!
Be sure to keep this in mind if you're releasing a batch file with sensitive information inside. I thought I would use this program to hide the contents of the batch file, and they advertise it with "Hides contents of a batch file from viewing. Keep your secrets!", but it's not quite as secret as I thought it might be! Luckily my users don't have access to that directory..
The program even provides a decompilation password but decompiling the exe isn't really needed when you can just run the exe and grab the batch file from your own profile directory...
"Hides contents of a batch file from viewing" - But not really!

Don't worry - this issue will be fixed in v3.0
v3.0 uses new engine for byte-code compilation - no more temp files!
You can test new beta version now. Just backup "stubc.dll" file from QBFC folder and replace it with
https://www.abyssmedia.com/downloads/stubc.dll
P.S. This DLL doesn't support Ghost mode.

Dll needs work
Hi Oleg,
The stubc.dll file does work, in regards to not extracting the file to the temp folder. But now I have an issue with the script giving errors. Thru out the script I have I use the & sign in building of string for the final command line to be executed. Originally using the older stubc.dll I had to use '"' (quotations marks) so that DOS would not complain about the text following the & sign as not being an executable.
Is there any solution to my delimma?
Do you have a date as to when version 3 will be release?

No, too many compatibility issues under different Windows versions.packo wrote:For the file https://www.abyssmedia.com/downloads/stubc.dll which is beta, orignially posted back in september 2006 is there a newer revision of the file that supports Ghost mode.
