Builder & Stub with GUI / C & C++ / Downloader(1-4kb) - Qmz_ - Jan 29, 2014
I was going to make a tutorial for a builder/stub, which would include the GUI but the source itself is quite self explanatory.
Simple downloader/builder, with GUI.
Stub size would be 1kb(!) but because of the builder and resource stuff it's 4kb.
It's not FUD, it's using the most detected way to download file - which is URLDownloadToFileA ;)
It adds the URL as icon to the stub file. Stub then reads it's own 'icon' and downloads & executes the file.
Builder is C++ and the stub is C. If you're going to add C++ code to stub, remember to configure the linker..
TODO:
Encrypt the URL
Add option to change name for the saved file
Better error handling
...and of course, make it FUD. Don't use URLDownloadToFile.
+ Lots of other stuff, this is just an example
Screen of the builder:

Download sources: http://www.sendspace.com/file/8fajrx
Nothing special, but good example for total beginners.
Ps. code could be better, I've just got into GUI's with resources.
Edit: No uppercase letters on the link! By default UpdateResource adds PADDINGXX to the resources, and the stub will remove all uppercase letters. Better solution would be remove all characters after *.exe but it was just a temp solution :P

Why would you show how to download the most detected way? Why not use WinInet or sockets?
You're also using a static name, the builder should allow the user to input the file name to save as, save directory and so on. I know this is just meant to be a skeleton but it could have been done much much better. You also didn't provide a command line argument options, and use CreateProcess instead of shellexecute.

Because it's an example/poc how to make a builder with gui & stub, made in one hour. Yes, it could've been done better - but it shows the main points. Who ever wants to use this/is learning from it, probably will make it better, at least I hope so. Also if it was a perfect & FUD example for a -good- downloader, some people would just directly copy & shit it, and sell to someone.
And please, contribute something before nitpicking a basic tutorial. 🙂

I contribute my knowledge, what more could you want?

It appears that this code is somehow interfering with the Google Chrome Botnet.
