Windows airodump-ng - change dll load messages

Reported by: darkAudax Owned by: misterx
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.9
Component: airodump-ng Version: 0.8

Description

When airodump-ng is started under windows, it checks to see if the peek drivers have been installed. The dialog box message is:

"Do you have installed peek drivers for your card?"

I would suggest the following dialog box message:

"The required peek drivers are not currently installed on your system. Would you like to automatically download and install them now?"

If the user replies yes then proceed to download and install them. If no, then exit the program.

As well, I noticed that a zero length byte file named "peek.sys" is created. Is this required? If no, then it should be eliminated.

I don't really know how to make the program download and (re)install the right driver (I don't know which card he want to update and btw, there is not only one driver), so that part won't be done.

The 0 length file is normal, I create it once the user has clicked on "Yes they are installed", so that he doesn't get the popup every time it starts airodump-ng (on default windows install, such file is hidden).

To sum up, the change will be the following:

  • Message box text will stay unchanged
  • When the user click on "No", it will open a browser on the wildpacket website

Message will be:

Do you want the peek (from wildpackets) drivers installed?
Clicking on "No" assume you have it installed.
Clicking on "Yes" will open a browser on the driver download page.

Clicking on "Yes", airodump-ng will open the browser and then exit.
Clicking on "No", airodump-ng will simply continue.
