There are a number of 'unsolved' crackmes on this site that are either broken or mathematically unsolvable. There are others, like this, that are interesting, solvable, but difficult to find.

The current voting system doesn't appear to help weed out these bad crackmes, so it seems the best way is through personal recommendations.

As such: Interesting cm - but more like a '3' than a '7'.

Many thanks to asept!c for mailing me the link.

Just came across this...

'Enhancing Software Protection With Poly-Metamorphic Code' [h**p://www.nswscl.org.au/journal/56/YipZhao.html]

It would appear this crackme was used as a 'proof-of-concept' in someones MSc dissertation...

The system as-presented is (of course) pure snake-oil - reading the paper made my eyes bleed.

Just ignore the nonsense in the paper - the solution is very simple but still worth a look...
