UPGRADE NOTE
On a nice evening "just before" then real 3.00.1 release, I received
some crack stuff, to make keys for 3.11.0 (Sysops Version).
At that time I stopped all releases, purpose to do something about it
in this Wide Beta Release, a lot has been changed.
Since the keys where generated by RkPlus, and every one can get the -
not registered version of this unit, I was thinking about a more better
encryption, while still using this unit.
After a lot of hours, I completed the first stage of encryption, that -
bypasses the normal encryption functions of this unit.
Stage 2 and 3 where completed today, to take all versions out of the -
loop, I decided to change all headers, include all routines, so that -
this version is NOT longer COMPATIBLE with the older versions.
Even the data will be transfered in Encrypted form, result a wrong key
and even IF the key seems to be okay, the data will not be transfered.
Only the special "build in" Encryption/Decryption routines will be -
activated with the right key, IF no key was found, the Encryption and
Decryption will be done internal "only for the data stream", Username
and other related information will not be processed, since it is not -
in use for ID verification.
If somebody mess with the key encryption method and if the key seems to
be okay, but the encryption fails there are two situations :
1) You are lucky, ZyRion will tell you that it is NOT a key from ICR
and ZyRion will exit.
2) Bad luck, IF the routine above has been bypassed, with a debug or -
whatsoever, and the encryption fails, ALL ZyRion files, on the site
there where the FALSE key is in use, will be deleted.
A special DFC byte will be inserted into the FAT, and you will NOT
be able to install ZyRion again, so don't DEBUG, or HACK this one.
You are aware, ICR Holland gives no support for those, so you have
been notified.
3) Also be aware that ZyRion use the MTE Engine, normal to scramble a -
virus, to advoid that it will be detected.
4) Also be aware that ZyRion use the P&S Engine, normal for scramble -
sequences, so that they can take over "by remote" your PC.
Point 3 and 4, are used by ZyRion, to prevent such actions, however, you
need to consider that a hacked version of ZyRion, can work in a complete
wrong way, because it has been changed, and I can not see where they did
it, therefore all the above routines are disabled IF some strange event
comes up, "internal" in ZyRion.
Result the performance of ZyRion will drop back, and you security is gone
other then this, it might be that ZyRion act real strange in some cases.
Regarding the statements above, DON'T USE A HACKED VERSION.
I spend a lot of time to build "smart" routines in ZyRion, and they are
active "this is NO joke", so be AWARE!
Don't get up site down, understand the statements above good, IF you use
ZyRion, so as it is, "NOT CHANGED" and no FALSE key, ZyRion will work fine
and you'll encounter no strange thinks.
Software protection is needed, after I got two hacked ZyRion's, so I said
to myself thats it, and now we are at the point you can safe upgrade your
Registered, or NOT registered version of ZyRion.
You want to have your data, secure and good protected in this time of -
Viruses and other weird stuff, ZyRion gives you just that.
ZyRion gives you also maximum CPS performance, and data Error Recovery.
ZyRion did that before, but it has been improved a lot, also notice, that
ZyRion will use now 4096 SubMatrix packets, this will increase also the
CPS performance, special at High Speed transfers.
However you can change this packetSize, just run ZYRION SETUPn and you'll
see, what you can do.
ZyRion will create now a full compatible DSZLOG, the only environment -
that need to be set is the SET ZRLOG= statement.
RVC or Real Voice Chat has been build in, but it has not yet been enabled
There is a new program called "Z_HELP.EXE", you can find there some -
information about RVC.
RVC will open a new door, it let you talk "for real" with the remote -
You'll need a SoundBlaster/Pro and a micofoon, a headset or external -
speakers.
While the transfer is in progress you can talk with the remote user, -
note that this function is only active IF registered.
RVC is better then the normal "CHAT" since you need to type to each -
other, but now you simple can talk, do you like this?
Register now.
REGISTERED USERS
If you have a registered version of ZyRion, simple upload your key, and
the new register.310, and you'll will receive ASAP a new key!
ALL upgrades are FREE ofcource.
SYSOPS
If you are a System Operator and you want a FREE key call ICR Holland
or Dick Hoogendijk, and we let you know what to do.
Last note :
So as stated this is a GAMMA version, all versions "USER" versions -
below 3.10 are NOT longer suported by ICR Holland.
Level - 0 has been changed to Level - 1
Level - 1 has been changed to Level - 2
Level - 2 has been changed to Level - 3 (Unix release)
ZyRionx.ctl files are not longer in use, ZyRion will create now
ZyRionx.Prm files.
ZCR.EXE is not ready yet, this will be released soon.
