Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 In computer programming , a dumper is a program which copies data from one source usually a proprietary File format format to another usually in a more easily accessible format . A dumper is a program that saves data from the computer s memory, usually from a foreign process computerprogramprogram to a .dmp Computer file file . Often the process s memory is dumped automatically to disk if the program crashes. So you may recover any unsaved data from this file or send it to the developer so she or he can investigate what caused the crash. Another use of dumpers can be dumping Windows Exe files from memory after they have been unpacked decrypt ed for further analysis in case of malware , or after unwrapping unpacking certain security envelope s. These security envelopes are applied by the developer or software vendor to protect these applications. Usually a security envelope checks if the application has not been modified, if you are still on your evaluation period or if the original CD is inserted before it unpacks and starts the application in memory. However just dumping is not enough because structures like the imported API Call were overwritten or intentionally mangle d by the protector at the start and need to be rebuilt to get a running executable.

DISPLAYTITLE Cookie Monster computerprogram About the computerprogram , malware , and computer virus virus Cookie Monster disambiguation Cookie Monster was a program created sometime before 1970 for several computer operating systems. The program was named after an obnoxious cartoon bear advertising cereal, but later became associated with the Muppet Cookie Monster . It started out as a way for computer users at Brown University to annoy their fellow students by manually sending messages blocking computer processes and demanding cookies. Only when the user of the ransomed computer typed cookie would they be able to go about their business as normal. Though it is often called a virus , it does not self replicate and spread, and so is considered a proto virus, or simply malware instead. ref cite web last Wentworth first Rob title Computer Virus url http uanr.com articles virus.html work The Digital Viking publisher Twin Cities PC User Group accessdate 1 March 2012 ref It is unrelated to the HTTP cookie .

The software combines spreadsheet features with word processing and embedded multimedia. Documents created with RagTime can combine within a single file multilingual word processing, spreadsheets, graphics, databases, and programmable objects. The current version for Mac OS X Mac OS and Microsoft Windows Windows is 6.5.2. RagTime is also extensible via plugins. For example, geo referenced map rendering is supported using a plugin developed by a third party ref Comgrafix that reads and transforms DXF and Shapefile shape files and articulates them to data in a spreadsheet.
