 Posted: Tue Oct 09, 2007 2:40 am Post subject: Changing object class names |
 |
|
My school (yes, school. I didn't quit it) is blocking any executables containing class names of browsers such as "IEFrame" (IE6,7) and MozillaUIWindow (Firefox) and many more browser classes. The scanner (ProcGuard.exe) seems to do that once every 2 seconds. Is there a way to randomize / change those class names to some scribble before the blocker closes my browser, so that I can still surf the web?
edit: assuming that "making your own browser" is not viable; using the existing browsers.

Make your own browser control and give it it's own class name? Just a thought.
As for changing the class name for a running program already..
You could hook the exes CreateWindow/CreateWindowEx function and change the class name its using when launched.

Download Mozilla's source, change all instances of "MozillaUIWindowClass" to something else, then compile.

Just fyi, The "classname" here is not about object oriented programming, its a window class.

That would be a good idea only if the program doesn't use the class name for other functions, as they would fail because the class doesn't exist.
If you are going to use this method however, I would recommend you research all of the functions that could take the name of a class and hook them to be on the safe side.

My suggestion wasn't ment to be the only / best. Was just one of the many. As nog_lorp pointed out, Firefox is open source, so recompiling it himself with a new class name would be the best solution of any since he could directly change it.

| I was just adding on to your post, as it needed some clarifying to anybody who would read it. Please don't act like it was a personal attack.
