Hi. I have some question about compiling software, please help me.
1.I don't know about coding and programming, so can someone tell me how to compile software in windows? I know compiling is make the human language turn into machine language, but what software used to make that translation? and is it just simple that paste the code into software and run the compiler?
i'm actually trying to compile aircrack, for windows. Do you know where can i find the source code? (is it a text file?). And aircrack written in c so i can only use c compiler am i correct?
2.I downloaded driver for linksys wpc11 pcmcia wireless card. I read the tutorial for flash linksys card firmware, in order to put it into monitor mode so i can capture traffic for wep cracking. It asked me to flash it using winupdate with driver version 2.5, but i got driver 4.0. Is that better and i use it, or i have to stick with 2.5? I downloaded driver from linksys website, so it mean linksys wrote driver support monitor mode for wireless card, i.e i dont have to download special driver, am i correct? if so, how do i switch my linksys to monitor mode
