PE Explorer Enables Analysis of Packed Malware Executables
Heaventools Software announced the immediate availability of PE Explorer 1.98 R3. The new release provides support for scrambled and obfuscated executable files.
Vancouver, Canada, July 11, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Heaventools Software (www.heaventools.com), creator of PE Explorer, announced today version 1.98 R3 of PE Explorer for inspecting and editing Windows executable files. PE Explorer provides software engineers the necesary tools for disassembly and inspection of unknown binaries, modifying the properties of executable files and customizing and translating their resources. With PE Explorer, they can apply a professional approach to research and reverse engineering of win32 PE executables.
Leveraging the power of PE Explorer Disassembler, customers can rapidly analyze the procedures and libraries a malware executable uses without ever activating the executable itself - a great advantage over debuggers where malicious code needs to be run to be analyzed. In addition to its previous roster of supported file types, PE Explorer R3 now supports for files modified with many UPX scramblers such as Advanced UPX Scrambler, UPoLyX, UPX Lock, and more. Now users can open these obfuscated files with PE Explorer even without knowing that: the files will be unpacked automatically.
A rich visual interface and trouble-free, advanced capabilities makes it easy and fun for new users to get started with digging into any executable. PE Explorer offers a thorough look at PE (portable executable) file structure and all of the resources in the file, and tells you just about every little detail you could possibly want to know about a PE file. Once inside, file structure can be analyzed and optimized, problems diagnosed, changes made and resources repaired. Click an executable file to immediately display and edit any images, strings, or icons present in the file. Power users will appreciate the plug-in API and ability to view a list of the files that are required for an application to run or for a DLL to load, a list of exported and imported functions, the manifest wizard to easily mark the application as XP-enabled.
Availability and Pricing
PE Explorer is immediately available for download and purchase with the (USD) price for a single-user personal license starting at $129, a single-user business license is $199.
PE Explorer runs on Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/2003. A 30-day free trial may be downloaded from: http://www.heaventools.com/download.htm
