- Some Fido mails I got... (I think they are of popular interest)
-
- WG> Just being in the middle of developing my very first shareware utility, I
- WG> was thinking about some kind of protection, and fortunately it seems like
- WG> your proggy could be the answer. I read the documentation several times,
- WG> and it is not clear to me what you mean "Commercial Usage", the
- WG> registration of which is 70DM. If I write a shareware program, protect it
- WG> with HackStop (after registering, of course) and disrtibute it, is that
- WG> commercial usage?
-
- That's right: If you distribute HackStop'ed files you'll need a registration
- of HackStop. Well you can use the normal "registered" or the "personal"
- version of it. (BTW: I will remove this sentence, it's confusing)
-
- >> Thanks! What version do you test? HS 1.13 will be availiable in a few days!
- WG> I experimented with version 1.11. I am looking forward to take a look at
- WG> the new version. Where can it be downloaded from?
-
- If you send a short mail to rar@fh-albsig.de you will be added to the
- hackstop distribution list, receiving Antivir stuff as well from me.
-
- You'll get allways new version now via Email. But I download every week the
- newest version at the Lionbox BBS (Germany). So if you want you can get it
- from there. For other adresses and BBS's see ROSEBBS.TXT
-
- WG> none of them were able to beat HackStop. Congratulations!
- Thanks! What version do you test? HS 1.13 will be availiable in a few days!
-
- WG> Also, one more question. I have a good friend who would like to know if
- WG> there is a Windows version of HackStop. Or are planning to develop it?
-
- Maybe, but you can not encrypt Windows Resource files. And there are
- different file formats between Win 3.0, 3.1 and Win 0.95. So if I plan to
- develope a HackStop/Win version it will be only for the Win32/NT file
- format!
-
- VT> Do you have any program that can remove Protect! 6.0 for EXE?
-
- Yes a beta version. Or use CUP/386, UPC etc. A lot of unpackers can
- bypass Protect 6.0.
-
- VT> I got WWPACK 3.05 beta 4, and I saw that it uses some anti-debuggin'
- VT> tricks! Do you think is better to use them before HackStop?
-
- Nope, most of the Anti-Debugging tricks are taken from HackStop. There
- are a lot of unpackers for WWPack, at least you can use CUP/386 or UPC too.
-
- VT> How can you recognize if an EXE was processed with Protect! 6.0?
- VT> There are apparently no signals!
-
- Take UnProt from my Untiny-Package to detect Protect 6.0 protected
- EXE files.
