Hey guys, if there _really_ is a difference between no-CD patches and no-CD patched EXE's then "all" we gotta do is change the packaging of no-CD patches.

Rather than supplying an already hacked EXE, packages should contain (the download location of) the hacking tool(s) (the more automated, the better) and a short description on what to do. Then everyone would be able to hack his or her own copy of the program. No original program code included!

This, mostly, depends on the large cracking groups, though, as they're not willing to publish their hacking tools: decryptors, unwrappers, decompressors, process dumpers etc... Which is quite understandable, knowing that the published tools may help companies create even nastier copy protections...
