The #2 in my 'KeyMe' series.. Promises to be much better (and more difficult) than my first.
Rules:
*No patching
*No brute-forcing
*Please write a small tut when solved

Much appreciation toward T.0.R.N.A.D.0. and obnoxious for the help of their source code to aid me in my quest for higher knowledge. :D

you all should try solving it and submitting a tut, though it is intended for beginners... :P

But it's too easy, so I leave it to a newb.
I lack time these days, so can't write a tut :p

I really don't understand the need of checking for a key-file. The password and the contents of key-file are exactly the same !

yeah, it's pretty much just there to be a nuisance

I agree with T.0.R.N.A.D.0.
If the keyfile doesn't exist, the key is not correct, it will crash...

But the KeyMe is nice, harder than first.
If you obfuscate it and complicate the algo it will be more difficult.

Yes, the keyfile existing is just to simulate a real program using keyfile authentication, as well as a password for your username. Still, I made fairly simple for beginners.

Doesn't work for me because it tries to find the keyfile from "C:\WINDOWS\key.txt", but I have my windows installed on drive J... You should change that to something else. :/

I always prefer "%windir%" instead of "C:\" ;)
