WinRAR vulnerability exploited by two different groups - Malwarebytes
This program was written for an educational use, does not include any copyrighted files, do not ask me how to find them, does not intend to support piracy, it's free and without any guarantee. If you do not agree to these rules, please do not download it. This program was born from my curiosity, I wanted to try to write a frontend for an emulator, and I chose the one for the Taito Type X system. So I decided to write one for myself and since it works very well I decided to share it with you. All of this is free with no banner ads or anything, I just ask that you subscribe to my social channels below and maybe make me a Donation. The program does not contain any virus, I simply have not purchased a digital signature and therefore is not recognized as reliable by antivirus, you can use a virtual machine or a sand box if you do not trust me! It would be nice to release the source code on github, if many of you will make me donations or subscribe to my channels I will release it and continue to update it for you! Thank you all.
