gollark: It's technically *possible*.
gollark: https://search.osmarks.tk/ is somehow still up.
gollark: My search engine doesn't actually have pages, so you should use that.
gollark: It's obviously on page 42.
gollark: Presumably, they just take the input executable, compress/encrypt/whatever its machine code, and store it as data in a new executable which also contains code to decompress/decrypt/whatever it and load it into memory from which it can be executed, but also presumably you already knew that and it's not very helpful.
