Reverse engineering..

[rooneyful]

Guys..just had skool today..and had a chat with our computer teacher...and so this is what she told us...
only 2 students are supposed to work on one project..and she told it must me something related to information blah blah blah..but since i was too much interestd in RE...i told her some parts of what i was able to get from google regarding SOFTWARE REVERSE ENGINEERING...

Software reverse engineering is done to retrieve the source code of a program because the source code was lost, to study how the program performs certain operations, to improve the performance of a program, to fix a bug (correct an error in the program when the source code is not available), to identify malicious content in a program such as a virus or to adapt a program written for use with one microprocessor for use with another. Reverse engineering for the purpose of copying or duplicating programs may constitute a copyright violation. In some cases, the licensed use of software specifically prohibits reverse engineering.

this is what we told her..its from google.
and then she was like ok...but she also told us that it is a science expo..so basically ..u need to make something..she told us to use that on any software...
hope u guys got my point..
really looking forward for some serious help...
if u help me really well..maybe i could get to popularize this method..and if its real good..maybe...get to represent my skool...
