That employee wanted to get access to the password protected resource and hacked the software (or asked some one to hack it). Time will tellĪfter reading you messages, I think that the software has been hacked by someone inside the company, or by someone hired by an employee. Hopefully I managed to convince them to update to Delphi 10. The screen where that password should be entered is bypassed, and even if the screen was displayed, the editor where the password is typed in will display the password! Some passwords are hard coded and disclosed to some managers. So the virus just crippled the software and destroyed itself.Īs for the application. ![]() I run several antivirus, nothing was detected. In fact I found other applications that were crippled too. I explained it wasn't Delphi's fault, and that could happen to any software. He must buy a few libraries first.Īs far as I can tel, it seems he got a nasty virus that modified the program resources. The company sold the application with sources to the application but no 3rd library sources are included. He was using the latest version, and I was asked to recompiled the project and get rid of all those problems. ![]() He bought the software to keep it in-house, and after a few months he got hacked. I might be hired to fix/upgrade/replace it. ![]() Just want to point out this is a new customer that already has a running application written in Delphi.
