Re: [PEN-TEST] exe to txt mobile code conversion

[Ryan Permeh <ryan () EEYE COM>]

i believe that this application was a uudecode program written in pure
asm/machine code that only contained code bytes that were within the
uuencode spec range.

it didn't allow magical conversion or anything, and you could just use
standard uuencode/uudecode utilities availible on any operating system to
acheive this.
