possible starforce clone?

[skitzdout]

well all this starforce 3 has been bothering me with several games now and reading all i can on many forums has been really informative. i found a program that has pretty much all the settings in it that starforce 3 seems to have if you read the info on starforces site. im not a programmer at all so wouldnt be to sure but i found a crack for this prog "anti-crack protector"
and gave it a go and it does exactly everything that starforce claims to do.
i decided to open up the protect.dll file of my beyond divinity game just to see. if there is anyone out there that would have better knowledge with stripping a program down like acprotector to see how it all works would be cool to see these starforce trojan bastards put their foot in their mouths lol
anyways heres the link for that program

maybe some interesting stuff for cdkiller

hello all,

I am a Cracker (For fun, I dont not condone piracy, I buy all my games).
And i have recently discovered that the file protect.dll, that is located in some StarForce games, is the culprit. I successfully opened the rd3.exe (Toca Race Driver 3 EXE File) and the protect.exe (StarForce Loader) Files in
W32DASM, yet when i go to open protect.dll, it displays a Windows XP Error Report message, I have also tried it on redhat 8, and am wondering if anyone knows of any references that are expressed in the games exe file, and the ASM coding for that, if you can tell me the exact offset, ill happilly attempt to make a fix for it, and will distribute it everywhere possible.
I hope this helps you and me to be able to play our legit games without stuffing up our computers,

Then your not a cracker, if you dont understand why the file was like that.


Its been wrapped, i.e packed with the protection, only way you will see the coding is with a proper debugger and quite possibly the original game so it can load and you can be able to dump the coding it unpacks.

Then it involves finding out the OEP, rebuiling the IAT and possibly fixing checksums and the likes.


The exe for the game is merely the loader to load the real exe which is contained in the dll file.

Who are you 2 say im not a cracker.???
Ive tried it with SoftICE, HIEW, and even someother hex editors.
ARE U A CRACKER, DO YOU HAVE THE SKILLS??? YOU'VE NEVER MET ME, ITS 10:30pm here and im tired, i cant do that much cracking talk now,
