If patching is allowed..too easy to solve . Just 3 or 4 antidebugging checks .. Loved the way you check for bps and patched bytes

FOR EVERYBODY:

Is good make a crackme, what it be uncrackable for a long time? I think, when I make a very hard crackme, I will very unpopular in crackmes.de.
I think, I can solve a harder crackme, but I have not a lot of time. :-(

Should I do a uncrackable crackme (in real time)?

I am not very experienced reverser, but in the some ways I am clever.

I would to please you to VOTE for my crackme, I want to know how quality it is. And I can improve my skills.

But I have one question:

I can'nt start SoftIce under Win XP. Always it writes Error 31, what is some error with VGA.
I have already Win NT 2.7 or 2.6 update.


Any solution?

i vote it and submitted a solution

i have xp to!!
you need driverstudio 3.x for using softice
i think it was coded for 95/98 (NT) but xp is more complex than thoose
so a update didnt work

i have ds 3.2 and it worx fine

supposing X a valid serial, for example

X-a
X abcdef

are too valid serials... it's because an "error" on some comprobations after calling an API.
