![]() ![]() ![]() This is just a reference collection of observations I have made about my GOTD experiences over the years. also, some reported programs are too new to be recognized, or have powers usually considered worth warning about, such as partition programs that can erase a hard drive often get reported, even though there is nothing misleading, covert, or fraudulent about them - it's like reporting that a chef in your kitchen has sharp knives, oh my!

( a ) expands the embedded installation into an encoded virtual machine that is inaccessible to the operating system, thereby preventing reverse engineering of the contents, and " as you say:ġ - The GOTD wrapper was not developed BY GOTD, it is commercially available ( in customer-customized formats ) from a third party.Ģ - The GOTD wrapper does not limit installation to only one day, but instead: the software wrapper, developed by GOTD Team. ![]()
