    Hi everybody, it's a great pleasure to announce the release of the new issue of our eZine. It was a real hard work to assemble all these contributions, but the final result in my opinion is really good. A 160 pages issue with releases, hopefully all of quality. Coming to this issue, it is focused on non-windows reversing, or better on non-win32 reversing. There are insights into the Linux world (Externalist, Gunther) and the Palm (wast3d_bytes has released independently another Palm issue, which has been extended exclusively for this eZine, I also added an interesting video tutorial from Suntzu). There are also two interesting contributions into .NET advanced concepts and…

    Don't want to upgrade the Flash Plugin? (again)

    Introduction As many of you will be developing with Flash, you will come to have known the Flash Debugger as an indispensable tool. As I write, the newest version available of the debugger-enabled plugin is 9.0.115 In order to watch the streaming videos on another site I frequent, you need to have flash player 9.0.124 installed - this means you must do away with the ability to debug your code or you must re-install one or the other version each time you switch between Dev mode and video-tutorial mode (yeah sure! Cos you only do one or the other, right?) Well during my frustration this evening, I decided to do something about it. This is the result of what I …

    Hi everybody. I just finished writing a new tutorial: "Primer on Reversing Jailbroken iPhone Native Applications" This tutorial is another primer I decided to write (similarly to what I did for Symbian), following my early experiences in the iPhone/iPood Touch world. We are talking of the iPhone (and the little brother iPood Touch), the Apple telephone which doesn’t support Java, nor Flash, cannot be used like a modem, do not fully support Bluetooth, do not allow to install third party applications (officially at least), which cost is very high and that you can only be used with those telecom carriers chosen by Apple just with EDGE network. Once unlocked (using techniques…
