CrackAttackz 01-29-2016 10:59

Hi everyone, CrackAttackz here! You might have already seen my name from my work reversing the JetBrains license server.

Professionally I'm a software developer and I enjoy reverse engineering software in my spare time, mainly for the challenge. I have many years experience in software development and hope that this will be a great forum to share my knowledge and discuss any related subjects.

Cheers!

Rigel 02-03-2016 22:56

I love keygens and few people here know me. I was away for health issues but good to see many old friends around.

chaplja 02-23-2016 01:28

Hey everyone,

I've just recently registered and just wanted to introduce myself.. I've been interested in RE and anti-RE for quite some time. One of the last things I released was the source of an early version of x86 code virtualization tool I was working on (x86obf) for education purposes (some important things were stripped, e.g. various obfuscations and virtualization of control-flow instructions) at my blog.

I've also been active in game hacking communities for many years before. Unfortunately game-deception was shut down, but I've seen some faces from GD in here, nice to see that some of you are still active! :)

See you around!

doingtest 05-12-2016 13:34

Hello world!
 
doingtest is really grateful for this opportunity you guys given me, I thank you so much, especially Aaron who was very kind to me.

So, I'm doigtest, I'm from Algeria and I'm a newbie who wants to learn from people who are kind like you guys, I'm really happy to be part of this well respected site and so clean that everything is where it should be. I was part of this community in the past but because of real life things I was away and my account got deleted and this open application gave me wings and got me back in. I believe I am a good student and having the best teachers around means I'll be better, step by step.

Again, thank you guys, especially Aaron ;) and see you around.

Hello EXETOOLS members,

Well it goes to show a good structure stands the test of time, i joined this site some 15 years ago and was approved by Aaron, and due to new, now old family faded from scene, but still managed to keep my head and hand in focus, now i have more time on my hands, i want to push my boundaries and learn more updated skills, i will search through the members list and see if there is anyone i know and say hi. Hope to be able to contribute something to this site and keen to participate.
Gdday to ThunderPWR, ShadeofRed, Odin if still around and read this.

regards
robotics0 :)

tusk 06-28-2016 00:48

Hi =)

I'm glad Exetools opened some registrations again and could finally join in :)

I am learning reversing and keygenning for simple pleasure, and for fun. I have some basic development skills and make my own little tools for fun too (or distribution in small circles of friends.

I wish I would start back in the days (when targets where not packed yet :p), but the most important is to continue to improve and help when we can.

Talk to you guys soon
tusk

Fresh meat
 
Another RE n00b here, have successfully fiddled with the odd bit of byte patching / keygens for old school registry keys. Have recently had a rekindled interest so am looking to learn the latest protection and RE methods, and hopefully contribute to the community soon.

Upz 07-03-2016 06:24

Hi guys!
First of all, thanks to Aaron to give me the opportunity to be a member here!

Saying hello
 
I am chants the Hungarian reverser. I have been using the computer and internet for many years having self learned assembly language and a good deal of experience with IDA Pro, Reflector and other tools of the trade. I am interesting in cryptography, self modifying code and theoretical graph research for decompilation. I have a degree in computers and will do higher studies soon and have always had a passion and hobby to reverse engineer things.

runio 07-14-2016 09:01

Hello Everyone

I've been reversing as a hobby for a long time and want to continue to learn.
I also have interests in web security, cryptography, and obfuscation.
I do most of my programming in C++, C#, and Java.

I'm happy to join this forum and hope to stay for a long time. :)

Alucard 07-15-2016 09:13

Heyo!

I reverse iOS games , as well as maintain (we dont talk about how good the code is) a file hosting service. My general passion is towards server management which I have been doing for about 2 years now. Good to see some friends here also!

I look forward to my time here with all of you

tantabus 07-20-2016 16:49

Hello all,

I am Tantabus, just recently got a masters in computer engineering and working as a hardware designer. I been a Gentoo Linux user since ~08 and I am always fascinated in understanding how everything works. I been reverse engineering as a hobby for a while and would like to improve my skills.

Intro
 
Hi guys,

Long time nerd here as well, started with MSX2 (Z80) assembly and reversing when I was eleven. I currently work in 'Cybersecurity'. Still enjoy making retro-style HTML5 demo's from time to time (besides the 'occasional' RE). Might know a few of you from other times & places ... Still looking forward to gaining (and sharing) knowledge, so greetz :)

universalboy 07-28-2016 04:20

Hello everyone!
 
Hi, I am Pat / universalboy.

I work as millwright and as electromechanical technician, however I spend about half of my spare time doing programming, modding and cracking (much less these days, since I work too much).
I enjoy the challenges in reverse engineering of both software and hardware (machines, devices).

I've consulted ExeTools Forum many times and I've always wanted to be part of the community.
Finally, here I am! Now, I wish to express my gratitude by participating, by contributing and by sharing with everyone here.

I'm still an apprentice in many aspect of reversing and programming, nevertheless, I have some good knowledges and nice ideas to bring in discussions.
I hope that my participation will help others and improve my learning.

Thank you all!

Volitch 07-28-2016 17:07

Hello, I am Volitch.

First of all, I am happy I could join this community.

I am a newbie RE/Anti-RE "student", getting on basics and solving different types of crackmes (for now). My main goal is to start writing hacks for games/learn how to bypass different anti-cheats systems, as this also requires RE skills.

This could be a little different type of RE, but still applies I guess. :)

I've been also programming in C# for 6+ years and now trying to get my hands on C/C++. Most of the projects I created were private clients' requests so there is nothing I could showcase.

So again, Thank You.
Cheers.

WorldCrackersUnited 07-30-2016 16:16

Hi!
 
Hi, besides my account name is WorldCrackersUnited, I am best known as 'Karman'. I am the owner of site http://www.inexinferis.com/
and http://www.rompiendocodigo.net/
I am C++ programmer, I have some skills with ASM, and using IDA and olly.
In my real life my work is related to web development, database+php systems, and similar.
Excuse my english, my first language is spanish.
I forgot to mention that I was dedicated to develop gamehacks for some online games since some time (Like 2010 :p), known as FPS games, well that only means extra money for me, but I have to say I learnt a lot from this experience.
see (note: I not mean to be spamming!)

Thanks everyone!

lahma 08-01-2016 12:31

Hello to the eXeTools community. I just wanted to introduce myself and give an enormous "thank you" for the opportunity to be a member here after many years of being an outside observer of the forum. Additionally, I want to say thank you to all of the individuals who have spent so much time and effort making this the best RCE forum on the internet.

Moving on to the introduction... I am a male in my late 20s and I live great in the great, although sadly screwed up at present, nation of the USA. Since I was about 10 years old I have been interested in programming (VB in the earliest days... yuck...), hardware modding (I was that kid that installed modchips in all his friends consoles), building custom gaming rigs, and general computer security.

In more recent times (roughly last decade or perhaps a little further back), I became much more interested in learning legitimate reversing skills rather than just being another script kiddy (we've all been there... right?). Initially started learning OllyDbg and in more recent years moved on to IDA and WinDbg. On the programming side, I have done serious dabbling in C++ and ASM, but I am by no means proficient in either. The only programming languages I would call myself proficient in are C# and Python (perhaps Ruby too... although not by choice... I had to use Metasploit professionally) which I have used a lot in past and current professions.

After working in the security industry for years, mostly as a security researcher doing bug hunting and writing exploits, I decided to go back to school and get my bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems. Since then I have returned to the security industry and have continued my career in that field.

With all of that out of the way, which I doubt anyone actually cares about or will even read, I mostly just want to say I am happy to be here and be a part of the community. I am an easily approachable person and would be happy to help anyone or share my skills with others who do not have the same skill set as myself. I hope to find others in the community who will help me learn about topics that I don't have a lot of experience in (for example, unpacking has just never been a strong point for me... I definitely need to work on improving my skills in that area).

Finally, as an initial offering, or rather a show of gratitude for accepting me into your community, I will soon be posting a keygen (including a very well commented source) that I recently wrote (and have not shared with anyone) for a piece of virtualization software that is as-of-now publicly uncracked. As soon as I'm done cleaning up the code I will post it. I will post the Python source which is what I originally wrote it in, plus the C++ binary that I later converted the Python to (I can release the C++ source if anyone wants it... I just thought the Python source would be easier for people to learn from).

Cryo 09-03-2016 04:26

Heya! My name is Cryo, and I'm a reverse engineering enthusiast, security researcher, pentester, hobbyist programmer, and animator.

My career as an infosec professional began about a year ago, and I'm currently part of the Incident Response team at a national organization doing blue team stuff. Funny enough, even though my job is almost fully blue team, I've obtained Offensive Security's OSCP and OSCE certifications, the latter of which is what really made me fall in love with reverse engineering and debugging.

As far as programming goes, I mainly work with Python when I need something automated quickly, but I'll use C or ASM if I want to focus on speed and efficiency. Most of my bigger stuff can be found on GitHub under the username KernelEquinox. I'm currently working on mapping out the .SAI file format for Paint Tool SAI files, but I'll also be attempting to create a keygen for it in the near future.

Unfortunately, while I love doing dynamic analysis using OllyDbg and x64dbg, I'm only vaguely familiar with using tools like IDA Pro, but I definitely hope to learn a lot about static analysis and further my knowledge in all other areas! I love both teaching and learning, and while I might be extremely antisocial, I'm hoping that meeting some of you and interacting with the community will help alleviate some of my posting anxiety.

I look forward to being part of the eXeTools family! =D

t3xc0d3 10-21-2016 19:09

Hi guys,

I recently joined exetools and would like to give you a short introduction. I am a reverse engineer with a background in maths and cryptography, focussing on (semi-) automated program analysis. Based on more theoretic concepts, I use methods/tools such as SMT solvers and symbolic execution to solve problems related to reverse engineering and exploitation.

I am open for interesting discussions, sharing ideas and learning new stuff :)

bongos_man 10-24-2016 05:08

already made a few posts but i suppose i should make a self-introduction too.

long-time reverser, fravia fan, former softice user. i also like type theory and functional programming. and this is really exciting to see:

can't wait to see more from you! ;]

Extern 11-19-2016 16:44

Hello, I'm Extern.

I'm fairly new to the reverse engineering community; I began reverse engineering Xbox 360 (PowerPC) software in 2012 (mostly things like bootloaders, the hypervisor, and the kernel) and this motivated me to move onto researching much more popular and modern architectures -- such as ARM & x86_64.

I joined this forum to take advantage of the great resources that this forum has to offer and to potentially help others along the way!

lowtec 12-06-2016 09:08

Hello EXE Tools! Thanks for accepting me as a member to this great community. I look forward to helping others and learning more myself from many others that have more knowledge and experience than me.

I have been a casual reverser for some time, and remember the days of +Fravia and such, but have a longing for deep understanding that only comes with dedication and study. In addition to reversing, I enjoy many aspects of computers and technology. I have a particular interest in hardware and electronics.

schrodyn 12-11-2016 16:37

Hey everyone,

I'll start off with saying that I'm very glad to become apart of this community. Looking forward to learning and helping out where I can.

I'm in my thirties and from Dublin, Ireland. I'm currently a senior security analyst for $company. My background is a lot of security over the last 15+ years. Everything from security engineer, security consultant, security analyst, sysadmin, unix junkie, coder, pen tester - jack of all trades and expert in nothing ;)

I have been involved in the hacking community in Ireland for a long time now. 10+ years with the Dublin 2600 group and I'm one of the founders of Ireland's first ever hackerspace. I attend at least two hacking conferences or camps a year. Although this year I have to work so I'm missing out on 33c3 in Hamburg and I'm quite sad about it! It was 25c3 in Berlin that inspired a group of us to start the hackerspace in Dublin.

I've always had an interest in reverse engineering but never spent enough quality time doing it permanently, that's been changing over the last year though. I've mostly done it in moments of anger and need in the past. Over the last few months I've dove into the open security training material and I'm now moving through the Practical Malware Analysis book. I also have a convenient supply of malware thanks to work which helps.

My focus is mostly on Windows executables and network protocols. I would however like to spend more time on ELF binaries but I find I deal with them mostly when playing CTF competitions.

Thanks,
Schrodyn (Schrodinger everywhere else ;) ).

IceSickle 01-08-2017 05:19

Hey everyone,

I am IceSickle and I work as a malware analyst (looking to become a full time reverse engineer). In my free time, I enjoy pentesting and exploit development. When I am not at my computer, you can find me on bike or watching hockey. I look forward to learning and growing here and also helping other do the same!

Cheers!

kronicd 01-17-2017 09:37

Hello everyone! Glad to be on board and excited to contribute. I've been interested in hacking and reverse engineering for quite some time and hope to be able to contribute interesting things.

mrfearless 01-21-2017 20:43

Hi, I'm fearless.

A programmer interested in coding and debugging using asm.

Recently I've helped create an assembler template for the x64dbg plugin SDK which can be found on github (https://github.com/mrfearless/x64dbg-Plugin-SDK-For-x86-Assembler).

I hope to be able to highlight some of my work, learn some new stuff and help others with some asm related topics if possible.

Thanks.

nixu 01-26-2017 22:12

Hello to everyone!

Great to be here, thanks for the invite. I do a lot of reversing, mostly ARM64 lately.

H4vC 01-26-2017 23:09

Hey,

First and foremost thank you for allowing me to join this community, I hope I can give back as much as I've learned from the things some of the members have released here or otherwise.

I'm H4vC or HvC (and a few dozen other names I've used along the years) a student still (albeit phd student not in a related field unfortunately) and a neophyte reverse engineer, I started out hacking games like a lot of us do then moved on to cracking and key-genning commercial software for education and entertainment and recently taken an interest in reversing malware.

Thanks for reading, looking forwards to talking with you all.

foil 02-06-2017 09:46

Hello, everyone!

I've wanted to join for a very long time, and finally got the opportunity!
I'd just like to say thank you to everyone for your contributions on here, as I've learned a lot over the years from you all.

I've been reversing Android apps for quite a while, and have some experience with Windows applications as well.
I'm hoping to share some of my knowledge, as well as gaining more knowledge from you guys.

Thank you all! :)

Elesty 02-06-2017 09:47

Hello !,

I am Elesty from France ! I'm working as a consultant and I would like to learn more about reverse engineering. I'm currently focusing in Java and other interpreted software reversing that is much easier to reverse, and in parallel I'm studying assembly x86 reversing.

Like H4vC, I would also like to thank you for allowing me to join this community.

abhi93696 03-03-2017 02:45

Hello everyone!
Hi TechLord,Jasi & Kjacky :)

Myself Abhi & i am from India.First of all i wanna thank @Aaron for allowing me to join this amazing community!! I am currently 2nd year BTech student in Electrical Branch & have a keen interest in RE.

I was very curious that how this forum looks from inside :D & i wanted to get Membership here- in my teens without any invite or recommendation.So i thought to try to join here one day & was able to register very next day(without any invite/recommendation) ;)

Currently i have little experience with RCE as i started learning it in July/August 2016, after i saw an android crack of jasi2169 & felt RCE is cool :cool:

I hope to learn & share a lot from here :)

Greetz!!

StaticReturn 04-11-2017 13:10

Hello Hello
 
Aloha to you all.

I have dabbled with reversing an old DOS game. I enjoyed the experience immensely. I hope to learn and be able to contribute back to the community.

Sterling0x1 05-11-2017 15:36

Hello Everyone
 
I'm Sterling, android and mainly iOS modder. Reversing mobile games/apps is my hobby since 2015. Thanks for approving my registration, it's a pleasure to be around :)

Peace

c0rin 05-18-2017 18:16

Hello Everyone!

I recently registered thanks to the open registration and Aaron (thank you!).
I'm currently a student getting a degree in a (computer) related field. Unfortunately I have limited time now due to tests and exams. :(

I have actually started programming as a kid on a C64 I have found and I still think it's the best thing, because C64 BASIC teaches you assembly (style concepts) without actually teaching you raw assembly. I'm one of those guys. :)
I have past experience with low-level stuff and basic reversing. I have been greatly interested in low-level things since forever. Partially that's where my interest in reversing comes from. Currently my low-level knowledge is a lot better than my practical reversing knowledge/skills. I always liked knowing how stuff works at the core and how it makes the whole thing work.
I currently dabble with electronics too so think of tiny, tiny computers. :)

I'm looking forward to learning from you guys and giving back what I learn in the process.

End of lengthy intro, thanks for reading guys. :D

cgrs 05-20-2017 22:04

Hi there!

I'm a Spanish Computer Engineering student fond of both frontend and backend development, as well as sysadmin.
My reverse engineering appetency came from a friend of mine, who introduced me to crackmes.de (when it was still alive :/) and I really liked a lot: trying to understand how code works without his code is intriguing yet addictive!
I hope to learn a lot here, and try to contribute whenever I think I got something useful.

Cheers!

trellis 05-30-2017 16:00

Hello, and thanks for having me—I'm a RCE aficionado, and have been for years. Glad to be here!
