hi. im not big into asm but i can get around in a debugger enough to
find problems with programs.

i have a program that closes another when it detects that it is
running, based on PE header info (magic number etc...).

I tried a program to guard the processes from being terminated, but it
didnt work at all.

So my question is, can i slightly modify the .exe program so that the
other program doesn't close it.

i have PE explorer editor etc... but i could not change the values
without it becoming corrupt afterwards.

sorry im a nooB when it comes to this stuff. although im willing to
learn.

Thanks for any help!
