Wow, this is a massively long thread, and I will admit that I ceased reading about page 11.
1) Would you care to post the win32 source code somewhere? I'm interested in taking a peek at it, even though I'm terrible with C (I do java... need to work on C)
2) I popped wzcook into a hex editor and did the proper edits, and it works great. I figured I'd post the fixed binary, just so others wouldn't have to go download a hex editor.

3) Thanks for the work!
