Hey,
I have a contest 4 all of U to do... I have made it up. U have to make a program(Using windows programming), to make a antivirus that updates using the norton.com website for the latest virus definitions. U cannot use any part of any other program. U HAVE to send the source code filez in NOTEPAD format, not in like .cpp form, and the .exe file. If U do not send both, U are not eligeble. Whoever wins, I will post their name, their email, and their program(If they want me to) on my website.

Notepad format is just plain old ASCII, unless Microsoft changed something in new Windows versions.

Then you turn around and use the code to make a slightly modified version and sell for money on something like rentacoder.com or something.
cpp is plain text, open one in notepadd and find out.
Plus its much better, cause you can open straight with its compiler, instead of havin to take our all comment crap the compile.

This is a dangerously silly idea.
Have a nice day.

it doesn't happen too often, but I can't agree to Mookeen enough in this case.... and, WTF hell is that stupid notepad format?! .ccp files are "notepad files" or however you wanna call them. Plain ASCII, nothing more, just like a .txt file. What you are talking about here is called MIME type.
Have a nice day...

So that's what MIME is. Thanks!
