Article 62616 of alt.crackers: -- There are two different protections in UltraEdit32. First is a nag screen reminding you to register. The algorithm checks whether you're registered or not and displays the screen is: 833D0C50470000 CMP 47500C,0 registered? 751B JNE 004023E3 no!then nag screen 8B75F0 MOV ESI, [EBP-10] to crack, replace 751B with 741B (JE). Now no nag screen. The second phase of the protection is more important. It checks the time limit and if it is exceeded, forced the user to register. The scheme consists of CMP EAX, smg if greater than go away. Search 83F82D7F10 hex string in exe file. It is the comparison. Change 83F82D part with 3BC090. (cmp eax,eax; nop). This patch will disable the time limit. Best wishes. ANON ps: trying to increase the level of newsgroup. Hate lamers. I'will continue.
