Program Typ : P-Code, Native Code Decompiler for VB programs

Release-Notes:
==============
VB Decompiler is decompiler for programs (EXE, DLL or OCX) written in
Visual Basic 5.0/6.0. As you know, programs in Visual Basic can be compiled
into interpreted p-code or into native code.
Since p-code consists of high-level commands, there is a real possibility
to decompile it into the source code (of course, the names of variables,
functions, etc. will not be decompiled). VB Decompiler restores many p-code
instructions and although there is a long way to the generation of the
source code that can be compiled, the decompiler will make analyzing the
program algorithm much easier and partially restore its source code.
If a program was compiled into the native code, restoring the source code
from machine instructions is not possible. But VB decompiler can help to
analyze the program even in this situation as well. It contains a powerful
disassembler that supports Pentium Pro commands including MMX and SSE.
It allows you to disassemble all functions. There is also a code analyzer
that searches for all API function calls and string references in the
disassembled code and changes them into comments for analyzed strings.
In general, VB Decompiler is an ideal tool for analyzing programs and it is
perfect if you lose the source code and need to partially restore the project.
