Re^4: Translating ANSI C to Perl

Bart,

Now, almost everything is working :-) but I see a little difference between C code and Perl, do you help me to understand why ?

ANSI C:

$ sudo ./get_HW_KEY 
e000f030392f30322f303400fc00
[download]

Perl:

$ sudo perl seek.pl 
e000f030392f30322f303400fcc4
[download]

best regards
