Hello all. Be warned right up front that there are no 'ice creams', warez, or cracks here. This is just my space to post ideas, thoughts, or whatever concerning my little hobby. It's not my goal to help people steal stuff, just to have fun playing a little cat and mouse game with certain aspects of software. Any programs I might store here are either freeware or unregistered shareware. Sorry, but those are the rules.

Until I come up with some original content of my own, this will have to do. There are a lot of good tutorials and stuff floating around out here, and I can't see much point in just rehashing what's been done so many times before. Good places to look for stuff include (but are certainly not limited to):

  • Greythorne - You're the man Gt ;-)
  • Mammon - Unreal how much info is stashed away here!
  • Stone's Webnote - Run time encryption, memory patching. A master of his field.
  • Lord Caligo - Best tools link. Hard to find at times.
  • NoNags - Believe it or not, you can find a lot of great tools here, all FREE.
  • Sudden Discharge - Tons of tools here. A 'must see'.
And, of course, Fravia's Page of Reverse Engineering.

Using the info you'll find at those links, plus a little brain power, you can accomplish most any 're-programming' project. If you are just looking for a freebie then may I suggest searching elsewhere. Remember the old saying: "The Newb helps those who help themselves".

Personal Stupid Protection Award
Crystal 3D Impact Pro - I gave these guys way too much credit to start with. Their hard coded serial number gave me a buttache because I kicked myself so hard when I finally found it. Furthermore, after registering you can get an extended 'objects' library from their ftp server. It's located in a hidden directory named '/secure_objects/'. If that's their idea of secure, I can only wonder how many people would have access to my credit card number if I was brave enough to order it online (maybe I should try looking for '/secure_creditcards/'?).
