aUTHOr -- Bjanes pROGRAm -- VB6 Crackme vERSIOn -- 3.0a dATe -- 29/09/1999 pLACe -- Somewhere on my comp :) pROTECTIOn - Serial only, Anti-SmartCheck rULEs -- There is only one rule -> You must find correct serial Greetings to all crackers out there, Hope you all sucessfuly crack previous version of crackme... So here is my new crackme, and the new challenge for you! Again it's a bit harder to crack then previous verison. Serial is not hardcoded and you can't find it just looking with hex editor. You also can't fish it with Sice. Another think why this crackme is harder then previous one is because it use few subroutines witch program calls to generate the serial!...So there are alot of calls :) This crackme also detects if SmartCheck is loaded and fill it with tons of messages! I wrote it for NEWBIES to advance their R. C. E. skills on cracking Visual Basic programs. Every version will have one crackme marked "a", and another one marked with "b". Crackmes marked with "a" has serial-only protection and crackmes marked with "b" has name/serial protection! Also every next version will be more difficult to crack. [Maybe there will be crackmes marked with "c"(misc. protection)] Sorry, but I can't give you any hints, because I'm not experienced with cracking VB programs, actually I hate them :) If you somehow lose the exe file, have only this text file and don't know where to download the executable, go to the Eternal Bliss' homepage and you'll probably find it. The link is http://crackmes.cjb.net/ If you're so stupid that you can't crack this program don't mail me! :) Mail me only if you sucessfuly crack it, and tell me how. My Email is -- BornaJanes@hotmail.com Hope you'll learn something new from it, Good luck and Enjoy! Borna My gratitude goes to: Eternal Bliss, The Sandman, Jeff, Iczelion, _ytc.
