Self modifying EXE Posted by coolpokhrel on 8 May 2009 at 5:55 AM
Do anybody know how to build a self modifying application? For greater security, i want my application to append data to its end. But how to do that? A running application cannot modify itself. I am using windows and want to build my app for windows. Is there any way to do that? I don't want a HELPER PROGRAM to do that.

You just answered your own question. If applications could modify themselves in ROM while running, then that would be a major security flaw in itself. I'm sure there's a secure way to do whatever you are trying to do without modifying the exe.
