the new warcraft 3 frozen throne product id is
PX3W

This has been known for some time thanks to /stats =P

Wow...I would've never known

By the way...

(DWORD) 'W3XP' is more correct

Or a string, PX3W works too

Not unless you're using VB, in C++ a string would cause ipban

No it wouldn't. In a C++ DWORD it would cause an ipban.
htonl('W2XP') == "PX2W"

No, string literals are terminated with '\0'

No, string literals are terminated with '\0'

Not if you cast "PX2W" as a DWORD.

Please know what you're talking about before posting.  If you cast "PX2W" as a DWORD, you'll get the address of the string literal, and not the string's "contents".

Additionally, on x86 and in Visual C++, '1234' == *(PDWORD)"4321", not htonl('1234') == *(PDWORD)"4321".

Wow, I just read what I posted and realized how stupid it sounds before I even read your replies . I must have been thinking htonl('W2XP') == htonl(*(DWORD*)"PX2W").
