By the same logic, if you walk into a shop and look at a pack of chips and then walk out and get the same pack of chips product from a friend who just gives it to you, the shop keeper should not count that pack of chips you looked at as a lost sale either.PB wrote:> The reason is that if PureB had 100% foolproof uncrackable protection

Wrong. If you used a paid app, even once, you're meant to have paid for it.
You can't walk into a shop, eat half a pack of chips off the shelf and put them
back and say "I was just trialling" or "I wasn't going to buy them anyway." :roll:
comparaison of ohysical product and software are biased and not reflect the real lose.PB wrote:> The reason is that if PureB had 100% foolproof uncrackable protection

but don't expect me to pay for a drm cripled application :=) Then came the darkness, product was discontinued and bold reversers took charge in. I can name a few people I respect who've done great amount of work regarding this protector (mostly russian fellows).
With at least one valid license, your "story" is over..
should I bash the keyboard and give up? 
I shall say nothing more than "Please ask vel why he made hes Armadillo papers public".spam wrote:Personally im surprised you even put LaFarge down as a 'dynamite' reverser. All I've ever seen of his work is stolen research from some 0day group ...
pfff..
Heh.. Those 'people that matter' shure doesn't matter much to me, and neither do theirif you code something of your own and shove in a commercial protector, then you're not the god who defeated the cracker. You may act like it (as in - "no one can crack this, muhahaha") - yet you gain nothing, no respect, no nothing. Well, from people that matter.
I will. I've decided to make a simple, but hopefully commercial grade product and post itI rest my case.. And do post your crackme..
