HackFinder - Hacks are little pieces of code that replace or extend functions of the PalmOS.
Usually hacks should be managed by a hackmanager like HackMaster or X-Master, but sometimes they patch the system by themselves, possibly risking conflicts with other hacks/ applications.
For background information on hacks, what they are, how they work and what could happen if you are not careful, be sure to read the article "Everything About Hacks" at www.dseifert.com/hacks.
To help determine whether an application installs a hack, I have written this little application called HackFinder.
It will scan all installed applications for code that installs a hack and will create a report listing these applications along with the PalmOS API call they replace/extend.
Be sure to read the manual to understand how it works and what its report mean.
