i dont mean to always pick on you, just some of the information you give is misleading and in some cases plain wrong, and typing the number at random maybe you and i know what it means, but believe me you'll see some noob actually looking for that filename when trying to detect the protection


safedisc 1 has the .exe and the .icd, the .icd file is the real exe encrypted.. the .exe file is simply a loader / memory place holder where the original code is decrypted to (from the icd file)

in safedisc 2 they did away with this method and changed it into one exe, with 2 sections (stxt*) where the * = 771 and some other number that i cant remember atm, 374 maybe, anyhow the exe is still encrypted, by changing the entrypoint to their loader code, which then decrypts files from the appended data on the exe, loads dlls, does the cdchecks, decrypts the exe, fixes it up then executes it..

so neither have the exe 'extracted' per se
