@Author, I think there is something wrong with the keygen routine, here:
004014E0 > 803C31 30 CMP BYTE PTR DS:[ECX+ESI],30
004014E4 . 72 0C JB SHORT grinder.004014F2
004014E6 . 803C31 39 CMP BYTE PTR DS:[ECX+ESI],39
004014EA . 77 06 JA SHORT grinder.004014F2
004014EC . 802C31 1E SUB BYTE PTR DS:[ECX+ESI],1E
I think there should be another instruction here:
SHR BYTE PTR DS:[ECX+ESI],1

btw:
Nice crackme, and after being confirmed about my doubt, I may submit my patch solution and probably a keygen.

we have another way to disable thread, instead of noppind CreateThread or patching jumps:

1- Patching thread code to "RETN 04" at 00401819
2- Patching thread CreationFlags to "Create_Suspended" at 004012F9, PUSH 0 -> 04
