What packer would you use

sometimes you could use two protectors/packers on 1 program, but its just stupid and really doesnt add any security.

yes you can modify a packer to make it maybe harder to detect in PEiD/Foil Some Generic Unpackers, a generic oep cryptor was posted a while back that would do something like that, although it was quite unstable. It really wouldnt make programs any harder to unpack tho..

In regards to Xprotector, keep in mind you'll be rebooting your customers PC and the crackers PC so in the end your no farther ahead cause no one will want to buy your software. Altho to be fair to Xprotector, its optional if it reboots your PC or not but in any event programs run so slowly protected with it its useless.

Hi

Why some mix beteween soft role?

UPX / FSG / ASPack /PECompack : COPRESSOR only.

Olthers: ASProtect / Armadillo / ACProtect / SVK prot / Xtreem Protector / Obsidium : Protector.

and i do believe that ASProtect is the best if USED the right way....
there is also Good/new idea in Xprotector....

just a newbie comment..

You are lose! I'm always use brains&hands when Stripper won't work.

It is a private tool at this moment. Maybe some later it will be public.

isnt that a good thing for security if somebody loads a debugger, then it will reboot? wont it make it slightly harder for the unpacker?

No. It is not a good thing!!! What if i am a programmer, and write a drivers & debug them. I HAVE to use SoftIce (or same thing). And I take a programm(protected with Xtreme) and run it... What?! What a sh#t! My computer is down! Is this good?

I do not recomment to use 2 or more packers/cryptors to one file. The exe-file may be corrupted or unstable after that (I had some examples).

Release it...

I cant release it, because it is HIS protector. I'll tell him your request, and if it say yes, he will release it, but only alpha version (other versions will be shareware).

He will be offline on 2 days, and I may release only crackme, packed with his protector.

I've decide to make a crackme today. Try to unpack it, but you may also make an in-line patch, loader as you wish. BUT unpacking would be better !!!


Try it

I see this protector has not been broken for the past 3 year
Is it really unbreakable or is there a private tool. Maybe not, coz i read somewhere there is reward of $2000

First, u dont understand me, i think. This protector (in crackme) named AlexProt 0.41. It was written a month ago. Crackme was written on the march 24 2004.
Second, it is not unbreakable. Russian crackers-friends discussed this crackme (there: cracklab.fastbb.ru /only on russian/ ) right after it was released. Two days and it was broken - h__p://www.mario555.pisem.net/Unpacked.rar (for example. other links are already dead).
Third, what protector are you talking about? Maybe we will get this $2000. =))))

Hi,
I guess u didn't understand me I'm talking about "codelok" and not "AlexProt 0.41"

Go try breaking codelok--> h**p://rtsoftware.org/ and get the reward and don't forget me

I respect the Russian brainpower...very intelligent people
