Crack for fun?
-
I just successfully cracked an application. I know: it's illegal, I'm a criminal, ... and a sinner :~, but it's 10 time better than winning a strategy game (and of course 100 time worst than a beer with a friend :cool: ). Knowing that: - I will not redistribute the crack - I'm regularly licensed for other equivalent programs (let's say Matlab and LabView to have a target). I'd like to know if anyone have this insane attitude. Second, I found that the latest versions are easiest to crack, sometimes too easy compared with the oldest one, could it be a new commercial philosophy? ;P ;P ;P

Sounds harmless to me, provided you own the program, and don't distribute the crack. Whatever gets you off, cracker. ;P

I prefer Speed, but hey - whatever floats your boat. ;)

I regularly pull annoying CD checks out of software that I use, but obviously I don't distribute them. As a legitimate owner I feel that its something that I shouldn't have to put up with.

i just bought unreal tournament 2003 :-D of course, it has that annoying must have cd in drive check, but i know of a lil website, http://www.gamecopyworld.com[^] and no, they dont actually copy games [i think] but they do have a lot of no-cd cracks for games, which came in handy, i cant be bothered to keep going and retrieving a cd each time :)

i began to look into it, but stopped.

It isn't a crime unless you pass the knowledge on. Will I'm not sure of exactly what law your thinking of (DMCA?), here's a little snippet: (2) No person shall manufacture, import, offer to the public, provide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, component, or part thereof, that-- I hearby solemnly swear that I do not manufacture, import, offer to the public, provide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, component that would otherwise to avoid, bypass, remove, deactivate, or impair a technological measure. ..but if in a educational programming sense you wanted to know how windows functions were linked to a binary (Like the API GetDriveType) and what a for loop looks like in x86 asm, as well as the effects on the CCR with test and compare functions, well thats all documented, public stuff...

MSVC and the windows debug symbols.
