I like chinman in this old post ( A real challenge ) have found myself in the unfortunate position of having lost my source code to a perl app, but i have the perlapp i created with it. I was interested in all the decoding that was taken place here and tried to use this decoding to decode my perlapp but apparently there are differences in decoding alogrithm between each version of PerlApp. I was wondering if anyone could help me decode this so i can retrieve my original script. My name is contained in the app as the author of the script and i can provide that name for verification if someone decides to help me out here. Using PE Explorer i found the script in the executable and extracted it out to binary file. Is there anyone that may be able to help me out? Thanks in advance
