Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer & Laszlo Molnar have created an executable packer that works on DOS, Linux, and Windows executables. A DCL user had this to say: UPX is just excellent - and it's free. UPX 1.25 is shipping as of June, 2004. Created: 04/07/2004 by Mark Nelson |

PECompact compresses Windows executables significantly, while allowing them to be run as normal. You can compresses code, data, import/export table, and selected resources. Section merging and resource data restructuring are also supported. It trims, optimizes, and realigns the PE structure while preserving shell icons and version information, or any other resources you chose to leave uncompressed. Uses its own JCALG1 compression, which offers decent compression speed, great compression ratio, and extremely rapid decompression.

| SFX area, CommercialProgs content | Petite is a Win32 (Windows 95/98/2000/NT/XP) executable (EXE/DLL/etc...) compressor. The compressed executables decompress themselves at run time, and can be used just like the original uncompressed versions. Petite also adds virus detection to the compressed executables - they will check themselves for infection every time they are executed. Created: 13/06/2004 by Mark Nelson |

| SFX area, CommercialProgs content | This program creates a very high secure AES /Serpent/Twofish 256 bit/Blowfish 448 Bit, Mars 1248 Bit and RC6 2048 Bit selfextracting file. The SFX-Header is 41kb-49kb great. This SFX cipher checks whether the decrypting password is correct with a highly secure method, never compromising the key: while a 64 byte random number is created and also encrypted. While decrypting these two numbers are compared to test for the correctness of the password. Very simple, yet as safe as the algorithm itself. The license covers Multicrypt too. One license for two programs. Created: 28/03/2004 by Mark Nelson |

DIUcl is a freeware port of UCL to Borland's Delphi language. UCL is the compressor used in the UPX Ultimate Packer for Executables by Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer. Decompression is extremely fast, and requires very little memory. The author claims that the decompressor fits into less than 200 bytes of code. Supports in-place compression and decompression. Using DIUcl is very simple: There's a compress() function that compresses a block of memory, and there's a decompress() function that handles decompression.
Real-time decompression should be possible for virtually any application, which makes DIUcl the ideal tool to compress your database Blob fields.

shcodec is order-0 32-bit canonical static huffman codec. It encodes an alphabet of 256 symbols with minimum-redundancy or length-restricted codes (basic method: Alistair Moffat and Jyrki Katajainen, modified by Artur A. Pessoa). shcodec uses efficient method for tree packing: on text files packed tree size is approx 68 bytes, on binary files this value is about 132 bytes. Memory requirements are very small: 1280 bytes for encoding and only 574 bytes for decoding! shcodec uses extremely fast and simple SHIFT-OR method for encoding, and CANONICAL-DECODE with a cache for small codewords for decoding.
Update: Alexander has added SH-SFX to the web page - a program for creating Win32 SFXs from files compressed with shcodec. Created: 04/04/2002 by Mark Nelson |
