MS = Microsoft. Everywhere you turn these days, MS pokes its head. They write (hire?) a LOT of software. And they get a lot of backhanded "publicity" from Linux users (MS this, MS that, blah blah, "M$ sux0rz", etc).

In progress! (albeit slowly) :-D

P.S. regarding this:

I found no asm blocks in that file, so I dunno, but obviously you can't push a byte (only a word or larger). "PUSH 8" would be either "6A 08" (push 0008) or "66 6A 08" (push 00000008) in e.g. 16-bit mode.
