k. yer way ahead of me then. i'm just a hack hacker. the reason i pointed you to yahoo wasnt for the hex editors themselves, but what else you find on some of those sites.

as for the files, did you try simply swapping the names of the two files so that the one you want is actually called?

and one other suggestion. sometimes the dev guys leave a debugger in place. if you could find that, you might have a chance at editing some of the .exe stuff without having to dis-assemble. no idea if they did, though.
