I have struggled a lot to reverse an app that is delphi executable. So I trusted PEiD to tell me the truth about the app but unfortunately I found these

 Nothing found[overlay]*

Then I switched the Kanal plugin and it detected crypto signatures

  ADLER32
  BASE64
  BZIP2
  CCITT-CRC16[word]
  CRC(rev)
  CRC32
  CRC32b
  CSS [table0]
  FORK-256 [mixing]
  MD5
  SHA1[compress]
  SHA-224[init]
  SHA-256[mixing]
  ZLIB deflate[word]
  {big number}

So in my case I never had of these except for Base64

All I need is the app to show its platform in PEiD and how can I deal with this type of compression? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------this is what iam trying to achieve this is the onclick event of my two buttons. i want ESI to be 00000011 before the call @005A6DBD so i tried to change the JNZ @005A6F44 but but ESI becomes 00000018 which is an event of another button. so as it is now the button(my Target) when i click ESI becomes 00000000 which simply execute the defaut of the Case switch Table that is inside the call @005A6DBD

005A6DC2    .  33C0              XOR EAX,EAX

For a better understanding the Call @005A6F3F goes to

 Cmp,eax.edx;  Eax=1E37BEE4 Unicode _27,   Edx=1E37B68C Unicode _27
 JE 004086E4;Jumps to retn
 Test eax,edx 
 JE 004086DA; jumps to another bitwise AND

That's where I am curious!!!

Kanal plugins can provide you with some kind of signature wherever they found it and this means that those crypto signatures are not necessarily useful for your reversing goal. What are you trying to do exactly? For Delphi try to use "DeDe" a nice and quite useful Delphi decompiler by DaFixer.

  • Thanks but DeDe keeps on thinking and after 2 hours it says out of memory, so I thought it's compressed with Bzip2 maybe. Thank you

  • By the way I wanted the onclick event of this app' button to switch to another function and a parameter

  • Try give us a disassembly code to see how calls jumps...are ordered and called... Oct 29, 2015 at 17:00
  • i have added some code see above

  • Have you tried to force ESI to have the value you want ? maybe change the line 005A6F31 > 6975 F4 7C1B0900 IMUL ESI,DWORD PTR SS:[EBP-C],91B7C by "BE 11000000 MOV ESI,11" Oct 30, 2015 at 10:25
