Ok, I'm back after having read alot more tutorials. The difficult thing with
this program is that it is for a school reverse engineering project and so the code is not with me at home, I only work on it at school. The file is protected by one of the later versions of armadillo (after 3.6) and I've confirmed that it has no copymem protection. You're right about the nanomites....they don't exist in this case..... I got confused on that part.

The trouble I am having with setting the BP on the first section after the
PE header is that after a few exception, instead of the program hitting the breakpoint it hits the Armadillo screen to "Enter your Serial number". There is no option to skip this section, like in Ricardo's 65-123LogAnalyzer tutorial. If I cancel, the program exits. So the breakpoint is never reached.

I tried to set a breakpoint on IsDebuggerPresent (both hardware and memory).....never reached that either. However, I did rename Ollydbg and I am using the IsDebug Plugin. I have set breakpoints on other API calls I've found in strings searches... so it is not me being a moron.

Thanks for the info on the Call EDI, I will try that now.
