-----cut here------------------------------------------------------------------- How to crack Lview Pro 2.8 Target: Lview Pro 2.8 WWW: http://www.lview.com Cracker: --..__J_o_h_n_n_y__A_U_M__..-- (TNT) Protections to be removed: nags, expiration Tools: W32Dasm, Hiew & Windows Commander 4.03 -------- My biggest desire for you - pure love ------- Try to grow spiritually if you want real happiness in your life! The ancient spiritual sistems YOGA & TANTRA are the ways to evoluate! Oh God, TANTRA is pure freedom!!! Yaaa! Also read books of Master Osho (www.osho.org)! -------- Beautifull image editor, special effects, for old PC maniacs is a program which has no need for any presentation. Great tool! 1. First, install the program. Ok, let's see. Whoops! In my case, Lview Pro is already expired, because I've cracked the program about 2-3 months ago and some expiration data remained in Registry. For you, to expire, must set clock on 2001. OK, so it's expired. 2. Disassemble LviewPro.exe with w32dasm and make a copy -> y.exe, for cracking. If we search after words from expiration nag "The evaluation period..." we do not find anything. But if we take a close look in the code of program we find interesting data on w32dasm adress 4CA670. Few lines below is some data (at 4CA6B5): "65C1BF90-1B7B-11d3-9A78-00A02...". Let's search after these characters in Registry. I use Registry Crawler 1.21 (enhanced by me - search for 4 ways at a time + exit button - a tut soon). Bingo! We found our data on: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{65C1BF90-1B7B... Let's delete this key from 65C1BF90-1B7B... OK. First we set clock again in 2000 and then we enter in program. OK, it's working. LviewPro restart from it's 1st day in evaluation. Good. So, you remember were we was? At w32dasm 4CA670. If we look in the code, program make like that: call 4CA670, this function see if expiration period is over and return to 4C86BC and if all looks fine (trial it's unexpired) jump (je 4C8BD3) and goes on. So, we reverse je -> jne or EB (in w32dasm 4C8B76 = hiew C8B76 - 74 -> 75). Let's set clock on 2001 for see if expiring nag is showing now, or what? If we test with LviewPro.exe, it's expired. But on testing y.exe modified now, expiration nag is gone! OK! 3. Second nag, with words "This is day 1 of the 21 day evaluation period". OK, I found these words on w32dasm adress 4C9321. Remember this adress. Now we can try our trick 82 -> 7E. You see also the words "This a LIMITED TIME EVALUATION VERSION". Search in hiew y.exe after them. I found them at hiew adress 1C6C18, change 82 -> 7E. Test now. What...?! What the f... is happening? All windows try to display but quickly then goes out. He, he, he, this looks like a protection if we try this trick with 82 -> 7E. Let's see. You remember the above w32dasm adress 4C9321? Let's go up in the code, at the point of where is called this piece of code. We have (line 4C91E0 - about 5 PageUp's) 2 calls: 4C8D03 and 4CA1C8. We go on 4C8D03 with Shift-F12. OK, we are on line 4C8D03. Below is a jump -> (line 4C8D0A) je 4C8E43, this looks like the jump who send program out if we try 82 -> 7E trick. Let's switch it. So, hiew C8D0B, 84 -> 85, Now, let's test (we have until now 2 modifications). Wow, working like clock! All appears to be just fine! Nags are gone forever! 4. Optional. At hiew adress 1CD523 are the next words (from About): "LIMITED TIME EVALUATION VERSION". We have 2 methods here: 1st - we replace words with spaces or 2nd, we replace 50 (P) -> 00 (one of my tricks). Job done, bye! Enjoy this fine tool! And set clock at year 2000! ---------------- Greets: tKC, CIA, TNT (nice guys!), to all crackers, PRO or newbies, all cracker teams (keep going, we must eliberate from iudeo-masonic tirany, all must become free), we are great guys, and nice too. I love you all but be a good soul! Romanian Greets: Va doresc din toata inima sa ajungeti intr-o zi sa intelegeti cu adevarat semnificatia cuvintelor "evolutie spirituala personala"! Incercati prin yoga si tantra sa evoluati spiritual daca vreti sa fiti fericiti! At last, but from all my heart: I love you Heavenly Father, I know you are with me all the time!!! God is pure love!
