Hi yo hehr, Nicolas,

I tried the first block, in the simulation window, but it was missing BochsIA64 or some. I then ran the third block, a StackVM as you suggested. I ran it against my Cryptography repair image, rabbit, and very slooowly reselected the tests and ran them, in proogrress...

We sure would be appreciating etwas help, as if there was a little angel out there who offers plugin repair and SHA512 code/plugin. Praying for an angel!
