Sorry, but the source code for your life is no longer available in its original form. A re-compile with appropriate patches (such as the MoreMoney and MoreBrains) and updates (such as FashionSense and MusicTaste) will not be possible.
You may consider hacking a patch, or even a new life from the code fragments that are available on the web. Be warned: most known source code fragments are corrupt in some way.
