ACProtector

Is there a way to unpack this? (e.g. a generic unpacker?)
How difficult is it?
What about programs like ProcDump, can they dump this?

ACProtect

Of course it is and was done, several times - manually.

About difficulty - it's medium hard. In theory very similar to AsProtect.

About dumping - you can dump it by yourself but then you need to rebuild import table (manually) and jumps to perplex.

Good luck,

Question

Hi,
a newbie question, is there any good tut around for doing such a thing manually? I digged somewhere but with no luck.

TIA

waste of time

unpacking is a bit of a pointless exercise, all the apps I've seen protected with it are function limited and you are not going to enable them (well I don't know of anyone that has succeeded) you might just as well stick with EVACleaner. If you are set on unpacking, lownoise released a plugin (search the forum) for ollydb may be of help.

If there function limited they most likely use encrypted sections, in which case your right theres nothing you can do about that without a real key on hand. Only app I use thats ACProtect is UltraFXP, and DiGERATi did a very good job on the loader with it functions great.

The anti-debug trick of ACProtect is INT3/INT1 etc., easy to bypass.

The Import-Table-Destroy scheme of ACProtect is just like TELock, so we can recover IT/IAT without ReVirgin/ImpREC.

The stolen bytes of ACProtect needs patience to recover.

As MrAnonymous said, code-snippet-encryption needs a real key to decrypt and there may be too many snippets encrypted. crazy.
