Using Visual Studio we found when you rebuild an EXE file, even if a few minutes later, each time the CRC is different.
Same with DLL files.

I heard that if you skip a certain number of bytes in the beginning and end of the file, you can get consistent CRC signatures. Anyone knows which bytes to skip?

Am open to other suggestions for EXE and DLL authenication.

Thanks
