Hi all

I have a little problem with Soft Ice. I have just started one of the Sandman’s tutorials on how to reverse a util called “StartClean”. In the tut it says set a BPX breakpoint on “getdlgitemtexta”. However when I set it by typing: bpx getdlgitemtexta, I get the error message: symbol not defined (GETDLGITEMTEXTA).

Why does this keep on happening whenever I try to set the breakpoint? Is it something to do with the Symbol Loader that comes with Soft Ice, or the config file. I cannot understand this, according to Sandman’s tut I should be able to set this breakpoint!

Any help here will be greatly appreciated – I want some hair left!

Regards

Hexon

Hiya,
check winice.dat

; Example: PHYSMB=32
; *************************************************************************
EXP=c:\windows\system\kernel32.dll
EXP=c:\windows\system\user32.dll

there should be no ; after the kernel32 or user32.dll

Hope that will save your hair from dropping
