vidmaster, Dawei had a valid point.

Downloading an executable from an unknown or untrusted source is an incredibly dangerous thing to do. At the least, it is a very good way to mess up an operating system because that executable may be a virus or trojan horse. And you asked people to do exactly that. Face it: this forum provides no means of validating either your identify or the claims you make about what the executable file does. Because of that anyone who deliberately downloaded your executable would, unfortunately, be a fool and anyone who deliberately executed it would be a damned fool. This forum also provides no means of guaranteeing that your executable matches your source code in any way.
