Unpacking the code
> I wanted to work on the original code but I couldn't find it. Microsoft never published it.
> I tried to work on Clippy prank, which is based on Windows, but after using 7zip to extract the .exe I got stuck. The extracted files have strange extensions (ADATA, ASPAK, IDATA ...) or no extension at all. When I tried to open them I noticed the code is encoded and I've no idea on how to work with it. (I searched a bit and it seems like I should get some .msi file from the .exe).
> The only accessible project I can work on is ClippyJS. It is the most famous project available online and can be interesting to play with it and make a website.
