I think it is not the original exe.
Because the firm name is the group name (AST:ACT).

But there are 2 problems with this file:
1st: the modification date says: Tuesday, 15th, november 05.
We now have april and nobody found this file months ago???
2nd: It is only an EXE-file. I remember the Toca Race Driver 2 Crack was also only an exe-file. But I cannot believe that a game like PoP3 is crackable with an exe-file only... There are other protected files like the DLL.

Starforce PRO protects nearly all files, that's the problem.
A crack would include the entire game.

you can scan the game with a-ray scanner and see which files are protected

Yes but these are only the main files.
The protection itself is much more complex.
you can compare it with mold in a glass of marmalade. You only see what's at the top but it's nearly everywhere. Starforce does the same. If you change one file (exe) than the checksum changes too and you have to change all files.

We got beaten by a group of Anti-Nocd freaks
Whats killing me is that they are 10-20 persons and we are an entire community spanning thousands of people and yet theres no way we can beat their defences.

Yeah, but this is their work! They earn money with this.
What do earn the cracker or the community?
We've also other things to do. We have a real life

But don't give up your hopes
Some day, StarForce and Co. will finally be beaten
